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.

Insanity is relative. It depends on who has who locked in what cage.
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
Those who live in the best cliffs think they are better than us. That is always man's attitude when he has power.
Ray Bradbury
If you write a hundred short stories and they're all bad, that doesn't mean you've failed. You fail only if you stop writing.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
Mars is empty now. Five hundred years from now, it'll be full of people.
Ray Bradbury
What's the point of having a library full of books you've already read?
Ray Bradbury
I'm not a science-fiction writer. I've only written one book that's science fiction, and that's Fahrenheit 451. All the others are fantasy.
Ray Bradbury
Comic strips introduced me to metaphors. They are pure metaphor, so you learn how to tell a story with symbols, which is a very valuable thing to learn. And I learned that from motion pictures, too, and from poetry. Poetry is mainly metaphor. If it doesn't have a metaphor, it doesn't work.
Ray Bradbury
I wonder how many men, hiding their youngness, rise as I do, Saturday mornings, filled with the hope that Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam and Daffy Duck will be there waiting as our one true always and forever salvation?
Ray Bradbury
There's no reason to burn books if you don't read them.
Ray Bradbury
Day, after day, after glorious day, I was falling in love with books.
Ray Bradbury
We earth men have a talent for ruining big, beautiful things.
Ray Bradbury
We have everything we need to be happy, but we aren't happy. Something's missing.
Ray Bradbury
All isn't well with the world.
Ray Bradbury
Sometimes you have intuitive insight about how you think things are going to be, and you write that. Other times you fantasize completely, which has nothing to do with predicting the future.
Ray Bradbury
How long has it been since you wrote a story where your real love or your real hatred somehow got onto the paper? When was the last time you dared release a cherished prejudice so it slammed the page like a lightning bolt?
Ray Bradbury
I'll hold on to the world tight some day. I've got one finger on it now that's a beginning.
Ray Bradbury
You don't organize metaphors . . . you explode them.
Ray Bradbury
