Writing is not a serious business. It’s a joy and a celebration. You should be having fun with it.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I was partially raised by an aunt who was a dress designer, so I was around her studio all of my early life. I know materials. I can look through Harper's Bazaar and decide what works and what doesn't, or any other magazine, Seventeen if you wish.
Ray Bradbury
Image
There's no use going to school unless your final destination is the library.
Ray Bradbury
Image
The major networks, the cable networks, they're being prosecutors. They're judges and jurors and executioners. Well, c'mon, that's ridiculous. But they're doing it.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Most of us can't rush around, talk to everyone, know all the cities of the world, we haven't time, money or that many friends. The things you're looking for... are in the world, but the only way the average chap will ever see ninety-nine per cent of them is in a book.
Ray Bradbury
Image
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
Image
I'm inclined to believe you need the psychiatrist.
Ray Bradbury

Here at this far lost end of the continent, where the trail wagons had stopped and the people with them.
Ray Bradbury

All of my writing is God-given.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Insanity is relative. It depends on who has who locked in what cage.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Halloween. Sly does it. Tiptoe catspaws. Slide and creep. But why? What for? How? Who? When! Where did it all begin? 'You don't know, do you?' asks Carapace Clavicle Moundshroud climbing out under the pile of leaves under the Halloween Tree. 'You don't really know!'
Ray Bradbury
Image
When you write - explode - fly apart - disintegrate! Then give time enough to think, cut, rework, and rewrite.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I do a first draft as passionately and as quickly as I can. I believe a story is valid only when it's immediate and passionate, when it dances out of your subconscious. If you interfere in any way, you destroy it.
Ray Bradbury
Image
And what, you ask, does writing teach us? First and foremost, it reminds us that we are alive and that it is a gift and a privilege, not a right.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I think the only way we can grow and get on in this world is to accept the fact we're not perfect and live accordingly.
Ray Bradbury
Image
The jungle looked back at them with a vastness, a breathing moss-and-leaf silence, with a billion diamond and emerald insect eyes.
Ray Bradbury
Image
The local TV news is the greatest danger in your life. It's all crap.
Ray Bradbury
Image
It was a great place to write a novel about book burning, in the library basement.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Think of Shakespeare and Melville and you think of thunder, lightning, wind. They all knew the joy of creating in large or small forms, on unlimited or restricted canvases. These are the children of the gods.
Ray Bradbury
Image
My gosh, if you’re going away, we got a million things to talk about! All the things we would’ve talked about next month, the month after! Praying mantises, zeppelins, acrobats, sword swallowers!
