Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
God, here and there, makes madness a calling.
Ray Bradbury
In order for a thing to be horrible it has to suffer a change you can recognize.
Ray Bradbury
I am madness maddened when it comes to books, writers, and the great granary silos where their wits are stored.
Ray Bradbury
I know you've heard it a thousand times before. But it's true - hard work pays off. If you want to be good, you have to practice, practice, practice. If you don't love something, then don't do it.
Ray Bradbury
We earth men have a talent for ruining big, beautiful things.
Ray Bradbury
I don't like the kind of writer who's out to change the world and beat up on people for their own good. Stalin did that and Hitler did that, and to hell with them.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
