More quotes by Ray Bradbury
It takes writing a billion bad words before you get to the good ones.
Ray Bradbury
I don't see myself as a philosopher. That's awfully boring.
Ray Bradbury
I went to bed and woke in the middle of the night thinking I heard someone cry, thinking I myself was weeping, and I felt my face and it was dry. Then I looked at the window and thought: Why, yes, it's just the rain, the rain, always the rain, and turned over, sadder still, and fumbled about for my dripping sleep and tried to slip it back on.
Ray Bradbury
All of the good, weird stories I’ve written are based on things I’ve dredged out of my subconscious. That’s the real stuff. Everything else is fake.
Ray Bradbury
Good to evil seems evil
Ray Bradbury
The only good writing is intuitive writing. It would be a big bore if you knew where it was going. It has to be exciting, instantaneous and it has to be a surprise. Then it all comes blurting out and it’s beautiful. I’ve had a sign by my typewriter for 25 years now which reads, ‘DON’T THINK!’
Ray Bradbury
Maybe the books can get us half out of the cave. They just might stop us from making the same damm insane mistakes!
Ray Bradbury
The books are to remind us what asses and fools we are.
Ray Bradbury
I have total recall. I remember being born. I remember being in the womb, I remember being inside. Coming out was great.
Ray Bradbury
He says I'm a regular onion! I keep him busy peeling away the layers.
Ray Bradbury
I don't believe in being serious about anything. I think life is too serious to be taken seriously.
Ray Bradbury
You knew the sweetness of now, now, TONIGHT! who cares for tomorrow, tomorrow is nothing, yesterday is over and done, tonight live, tonight!
Ray Bradbury
I don’t write things to benefit the world. If it happens that they do, swell. I didn’t set out to do that. I set out to have a hell of a lot of fun.
Ray Bradbury
Get rid of those friends of yours who make fun of you and don't believe in you. And when you leave here tonight, go home, make a phone call and fire them. Anyone that doesn't believe in you and your future, to hell with them.
Ray Bradbury
But you can't make people listen. They have to come round in their own time, wondering what happened and why the world blew up around them. It can't last.
Ray Bradbury
The television, that insidious beast, that Medusa which freezes a billion people to stone every night, staring fixedly, that Siren which called and sang and promised so much and gave, after all, so little.
Ray Bradbury
Painting fulfills a need to be non-intellectual. There are times when we have to get our brains out in our fingers.
Ray Bradbury
If you're reluctant to weep, you won't live a full and complete life.
Ray Bradbury
Venice was and is full of lost places where people put up for sale the last worn bits of their souls, hoping no one will buy.
Ray Bradbury
Love what you do and do what you love.
Ray Bradbury
