Image
The sun rose yellow as a lemon.The sky was round and blue.The birds looped clear water songs in the air.Will and Jim leaned from their windows.Nothing had changed.Except the look in Jim's eyes.Last night. . . said Will. Did or didn't it happen?
Ray Bradbury
Image
If you write a hundred short stories and they're all bad, that doesn't mean you've failed. You fail only if you stop writing.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Through lack of education, we're not teaching kids to read and write. So there is the danger that you raise up a generation of morons.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Recreate the world in your own image and make it better for your having been here.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I have spent my life going from mania to mania. Somehow it has all paid off.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I have two rules in life - to hell with it, whatever it is, and get your work done.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Self-consciousness is the enemy of all art, be it acting, writing, painting, or living itself, which is the greatest art of all.
Ray Bradbury
Image
A book is a loaded gun in the house next door...Who knows who might be the target of the well-read man?
Ray Bradbury
Image
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
Image
Write a thousand words a day and in three years you'll be a writer!
Ray Bradbury
Image
I am madness maddened when it comes to books, writers, and the great granary silos where their wits are stored.
Ray Bradbury
Image
When you go home tonight, make a list of the people who are impediments, who don't believe in you, and call them up and tell them, 'Get the hell out of my life.' You don't need them. Writing is tough enough without having people around you who contribute to a writer's insecurity.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Love is easy, and I love writing. You can't resist love. You get an idea, someone says something, and you're in love.
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
We are all . . . children of this universe. Not just Earth, or Mars, or this system, but the whole grand fireworks. And if we are interested in Mars at all, it is only because we wonder over our past and worry terribly about our possible future.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Sometimes you have intuitive insight about how you think things are going to be, and you write that. Other times you fantasize completely, which has nothing to do with predicting the future.
Ray Bradbury
Image
I have never listened to anyone who criticized my taste in space travel, sideshows or gorillas. When this occurs, I pack up my dinosaurs and leave the room.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Why go to a machine when you could go to a human being?
Ray Bradbury
Image
There's no use going to school unless your final destination is the library.
Ray Bradbury
Image
How to feel your way toward something honest, hidden under the trapdoor on the top of your skull.
