The human race likes to give itself airs. One good volcano can produce more greenhouse gases in a year than the human race has in its entire history.

More quotes by Ray Bradbury
So while our art cannot, as we wish it could, save us from wars, privation, envy, greed, old age, or death, it can revitalize us amidst it all.
Ray Bradbury
My job is to help you fall in love.
Ray Bradbury
Memory is an illusion, nothing more. It is a fire that needs constant tending.
Ray Bradbury
Let the world burn through you. Throw the prism light, white hot, on paper.
Ray Bradbury
Why the Egyptian, Arabic, Abyssinian, Choctaw? Well, what tongue does the wind talk? What nationality is a storm? What country do rains come from? What color is lightning? Where does thunder goe when it dies?
Ray Bradbury
Write a thousand words a day and in three years you'll be a writer!
Ray Bradbury
The library is the biggest cracker box factory in the world. The more you eat, the more you want.
Ray Bradbury
I feel like I’ve been saving up a lot of things, and I don’t know what.
Ray Bradbury
I don't understand this whole thing about computers and the superhighway. Who wants to be in touch with all of those people?
Ray Bradbury
Programs like 'Jeopardy' and 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' are ridiculous. They're the stupidest shows in history. They're making us dumber. They don't give us information, they give us facts, factoids. You don't learn who Napoleon was and how he was motivated. You learn what year he was born, and when he died. That's useless.
Ray Bradbury
Time is so strange and life is twice as strange.
Ray Bradbury
A library is all the university you will ever need.
Ray Bradbury
Not to write, for many of us, is to die.
Ray Bradbury
Remember, the firemen are rarely necessary. The public itself stopped reading of its own accord.
Ray Bradbury
The world doesn't give a damn about you unless you do something. Those are the rules I didn't make them. If you are lazy, if you don't get the work that you love done, the world won't care if you die tomorrow and go into the grave and are gone and forgotten forever.
Ray Bradbury
Zest. Gusto. How rarely one hears these words used. How rarely do we see people living, or for that matter, creating, by them. Yet if I were asked to name the most important items in a writer's make-up, the things that shape his material and rush him along the road he wants to go. I would only warn him to look to his zest, see to his gusto.
Ray Bradbury
If you're living in your time, you cannot help but to write about the things that are important.
Ray Bradbury
There is too much government today. We've got to remember the government should be by the people, of the people, and for the people.
Ray Bradbury
Science Fiction has always been and will always be a fable teacher of morality.
Ray Bradbury
Life should be touched, not strangled.
Ray Bradbury
