More quotes by Ray Bradbury
You grow ravenous. You run fevers. You know exhilarations. You can't sleep at night, because your beast-creature ideas want out and turn you in your bed. It is a grand way to live.
Ray Bradbury
Don't they get afraid, then? They have a religion for that.
Ray Bradbury
If you can't read and write you can't think. Your thoughts are dispersed if you don't know how to read and write. You've got to be able to look at your thoughts on paper and discover what a fool you were.
Ray Bradbury
We earth men have a talent for ruining big, beautiful things.
Ray Bradbury
I discovered me in the library. I went to find me in the library.
Ray Bradbury
Everything that happens before Death is what counts.
Ray Bradbury
Can't you recognize the human in the inhuman?
Ray Bradbury
Those who live in the best cliffs think they are better than us. That is always man's attitude when he has power.
Ray Bradbury
Not to write, for many of us, is to die. We must take ares each and every day, perhaps knowing that the battle cannot be entirely won, but fight we must, if only a gentle bout. The smallest effort to win means, at the end of each day, a sort of victory.
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
I love writing, it's the center of my life. If you don't love what you do, you'd better find something else to love. Otherwise, you don't have a reason for living.
Ray Bradbury
You're either in love with what you do, or you're not in love.
Ray Bradbury
We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over so in a series of kindnesses there is at last one which makes the heart run over.
Ray Bradbury
Facts are not interesting to me.
Ray Bradbury
I am not a science fiction writer. I am a fantasy writer. But the label got put on me and stuck.
Ray Bradbury
Love what you do and do what you love.
Ray Bradbury
Long before you knew what death was you were wishing it on someone else.
Ray Bradbury
The major networks, the cable networks, they're being prosecutors. They're judges and jurors and executioners. Well, c'mon, that's ridiculous. But they're doing it.
Ray Bradbury
Today we haved touched Mars. There is life on Mars, and it us us-extensions of our eyes in all directions, extensions of our mind, extensions of our heart and soul have touched Mars today. That's the message to look for there: We are on Mars. We are the Martians!
Ray Bradbury
Impossible for how many people did you know who refracted your own light to you?
Ray Bradbury
