When the wind is right, a faint odor of kerosene is exhaled from Senator McCarthy.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Don’t worry about things. Don’t push. Just do your work and you’ll survive. The important thing is to have a ball, to be joyful, to be loving and to be explosive. Out of that comes everything and you grow.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Remember, the firemen are rarely necessary. The public itself stopped reading of its own accord.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Do what you love and love what you do. Don’t do anything for money. Everything should be for love.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Suddenly the day was gone, night came out from under each tree and spread.
Ray Bradbury

Find out what your hero or heroine wants, and when he or she wakes up in the morning, just follow him or her all day.
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
Image

Ray Bradbury
Image
A book is a loaded gun.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Facts quite often, I fear to confess, like lawyers, put me to sleep at noon. Not theories, however. Theories are invigorating and tonic. Give me an ounce of fact and I will produce you a ton of theory by tea this afternoon. That is, after all, my job.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Digression is the soul of wit. Take the philosophic asides away from Dante, Milton or Hamlet's father's ghost and what stays is dry bones.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Not to write, for many of us, is to die.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I have four daughters and eight grandchildren. My soul lives on in them. That's immortality. That's the only immortality I care about.
Ray Bradbury
Image
My goal is to entertain myself and others.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I love all of the arts. I love motion pictures. I love stage. I love theater.
Ray Bradbury
Image
So few want to be rebels anymore. And out of those few, most, like myself, scare easily.
