More quotes by Ray Bradbury
I came on the old and best ways of writing through ignorance and experiment and was startled when truths leaped out of brushes like quail before gunshot.
Ray Bradbury
I want to hold onto this funny thing. God, it's gotten big on me. I don't know what it is. I'm so damned unhappy, I'm so mad, and I don't know why. I feel like I'm putting on weight. I feel fat. I feel like I'm saving a lot of things, and I don't know what. I might even start reading books.
Ray Bradbury
Men read science fiction to build the future. Women don't need to read it. They are the future.
Ray Bradbury
We're going to become the martians when we land there. When we explore and build communities, we become the martians. That's a wonderful destiny for all of us.
Ray Bradbury
At the top of your lungs, shout and listen to the echoes. You must live life at the top of your voice!
Ray Bradbury
I wake up in the morning and I lie in bed, and it's the time I call the theater of morning. All these thoughts run around in my head, between my ears when I'm waking up. It's not a dream state, but it's not completely awake either. So all these metaphors run around and then I pick one and I get out of bed and I do it. I'm very lucky.
Ray Bradbury
Science fiction is any idea that occurs in the head and doesn't exist yet, but soon will, and will change everything for everybody, and nothing will ever be the same again. As soon as you have an idea that changes some small part of the world you are writing science fiction. It is always the art of the possible, never the impossible.
Ray Bradbury
You should love literature. You should live in the library. Forget about films.
Ray Bradbury
I don't think the robots are taking over. I think the men who play with toys have taken over. And if we don't take the toys out of their hands, we're fools.
Ray Bradbury
You can't try to do things you simply must do them.
Ray Bradbury
Love is the answer to everything. It's the only reason to do anything. If you don't write stories you love, you'll never make it. If you don't write stories that other people love, you'll never make it.
Ray Bradbury
I’m really alive! he thought. I never knew it before, or if I did I don’t remember!
Ray Bradbury
You have to learn to take rejection not as an indication of personal failing but as a wrong address.
Ray Bradbury
Treasure this day and Treasure yourself, truly, neither will ever happen again.
Ray Bradbury
Savory...that's a swell word. And Basil and Betel. Capsicum. Curry. All great. But Relish, now, Relish with a capital R. No argument, that' the best.
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
Mars is empty now. Five hundred years from now, it'll be full of people.
Ray Bradbury
Love is easy, and I love writing. You can't resist love. You get an idea, someone says something, and you're in love.
Ray Bradbury
I'm not a serious person, and I don't like serious people.
Ray Bradbury
The Martians were there - in the canal - reflected in the water.... The Martians stared back up at them for a long, long silent time from the rippling water.
Ray Bradbury
