Image
Write. Don't think. Relax.
Ray Bradbury
Image
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
Image
Death doesn't exist. It never did, it never will. But we've drawn so many pictures of it, so many years, trying to pin it down, comprehend it, we've got to thinking of it as an entity, strangely alive and greedy. All it is, however, is a stopped watch, a loss, an end, a darkness. Nothing.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Living at risk is jumping off the cliff and building your wings on the way down.
Ray Bradbury
Image
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
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
I spent three days a week for 10 years educating myself in the public library, and it's better than college.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Hollywood was a good influence because I was madly in love with films, and the films had a direct influence on me.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Where would you like to go, what would you really like to do with your life? See Istanbul, Port Said, Nairobi, Budapest. Write a book. Smoke too many cigarettes. Fall off a cliff but get caught in a tree halfway down. Get shot at a few times in a dark alley on a Morrocan midnight. Love a beautiful woman.
Ray Bradbury
Image
So in sum, what are we? We are the creatures that know and know too much. That leaves us with such a burden again we have a choice, to laugh or cry. No other animal does either. We do, depending on the season and the need.
Ray Bradbury
Image
And what, you ask, does writing teach us? First and foremost, it reminds us that we are alive and that it is a gift and a privilege, not a right.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Don't ask for guarantees. And don't look to be saved in any one thing, person, machine, or library. Do your own bit of saving, and if you drown, at least die knowing you were heading for shore.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I used to take my short stories to girls' homes and read them to them. Can you imagine the reaction reading a short story to a girl instead of pawing her?
Ray Bradbury
Image
What is The Subconscious to every other man, in its creative aspect becomes, for writers, The Muse.
Ray Bradbury
Image
To feed your Muse, then, you should always have been hungry about life since you were a child. If not, it is a little late to start.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I just want someone to hear what I have to say. And maybe if I talk long enough, it’ll make sense.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I believe in having fun first, and along the way, if you teach people, if you influence people, well and good.
Ray Bradbury
Image
You can't try to do things you simply must do them.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I don't believe in colleges and universities.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I started writing every day. I never stopped.
Ray Bradbury
