More quotes by Ray Bradbury
From the outer edge of his life, looking back, there was only one remorse, and that was only that he wished to go on living.
Ray Bradbury
You must write every single day of your life... You must lurk in libraries and climb the stacks like ladders to sniff books like perfumes and wear books like hats upon your crazy heads... may you be in love every day for the next 20,000 days. And out of that love, remake a world.
Ray Bradbury
I did what most writers do at their beginnings: emulated my elders, imitated my peers, thus turning away from any possibility of discovering truths beneath my skin and behind my eye.
Ray Bradbury
I'm not anyone, I'm just myself whatever I am, I am something, and now I'm something you can't help.
Ray Bradbury
The library is the biggest cracker box factory in the world. The more you eat, the more you want.
Ray Bradbury
Don't they get afraid, then? They have a religion for that.
Ray Bradbury
And he remembered thinking then that if she died, he was certain he wouldn't cry. For it would be the dying face of an unknown, a street face, a newspaper image, and it was suddenly so very wrong that he had begun to cry, not at death but at the thought of not crying at death, a silly empty man near a silly empty woman.
Ray Bradbury
Plot is no more than footprints left in the snow after your characters have run by on their way to incredible destinations.
Ray Bradbury
Venice was and is full of lost places where people put up for sale the last worn bits of their souls, hoping no one will buy.
Ray Bradbury
You must live feverishly in a library. Colleges are not going to do any good unless you are raised and live in a library everyday of your life.
Ray Bradbury
Death doesn't exist. It never did, it never will. But we've drawn so many pictures of it, so many years, trying to pin it down, comprehend it, we've got to thinking of it as an entity, strangely alive and greedy. All it is, however, is a stopped watch, a loss, an end, a darkness. Nothing.
Ray Bradbury
Everything is generated through your own will power.
Ray Bradbury
Love what you do and do what you love.
Ray Bradbury
I like to watch people. Sometimes I ride the subway all day and look at them and listen to them. I just want to figure out who they are and what they want and where they're going.
Ray Bradbury
Don’t worry about things. Don’t push. Just do your work and you’ll survive. The important thing is to have a ball, to be joyful, to be loving and to be explosive. Out of that comes everything and you grow.
Ray Bradbury
I don’t write things to benefit the world. If it happens that they do, swell. I didn’t set out to do that. I set out to have a hell of a lot of fun.
Ray Bradbury
The answer to all writing, to any career for that matter, is love.
Ray Bradbury
If someone tells you to do something for money, tell them to go to hell.
Ray Bradbury
Dandelion wine. The words were summer on the tongue. The wine was summer caught and stoppered...sealed away for opening on a January day with snow falling fast and the sun unseen for weeks.
Ray Bradbury
The gift of life is so precious that we should feel an obligation to pay back the universe for the gift of being alive.
Ray Bradbury
