When the wind is right, a faint odor of kerosene is exhaled from Senator McCarthy.
Ray Bradbury
Image
You're not like the others. I've seen a few I know. When I talk, you look at me. When I said something about the moon, you looked at the moon.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I used to take my short stories to girls' homes and read them to them. Can you imagine the reaction reading a short story to a girl instead of pawing her?
Ray Bradbury
Image
I don't like the kind of writer who's out to change the world and beat up on people for their own good. Stalin did that and Hitler did that, and to hell with them.
Ray Bradbury
Image
The sun burnt every day. It burnt time.
Ray Bradbury
Image
And when he died, I suddenly realized I wasn't crying for him at all, but for the things he did. I cried because he would never do them again.

If someone sends you a love letter you've got to answer back.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I have two rules in life - to hell with it, whatever it is, and get your work done.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Chock them so ... full of facts they feel stuffed, but absolutely brilliant with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Day, after day, after glorious day, I was falling in love with books.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Looking back over a lifetime, you see that love was the answer to everything.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I don't write science fiction. I've only done one science fiction book and that's Fahrenheit 451, based on reality. Science fiction is a depiction of the real. Fantasy is a depiction of the unreal.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Everything of mine is permeated with my love of ideas-both big and small. It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it grabs me and holds me, facinates me. And then I'll run out and something about it... I write for fun.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.
Ray Bradbury
