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

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

My job is to help you fall in love.
Ray Bradbury
