More quotes by Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
Most members of Congress are politicians. They're bores. They're damn boring. They have no imagination, and they don't know how to imagine the future.
Ray Bradbury
I’ve learned that by doing things, things get done.
Ray Bradbury
The stars are yours, if you have the head, the hands, and the heart for them.
Ray Bradbury
I think we're doing a dreadful job of educating.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
If you're living in your time, you cannot help but to write about the things that are important.
Ray Bradbury
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

Ray Bradbury
I know you've heard it a thousand times before. But it's true - hard work pays off. If you want to be good, you have to practice, practice, practice. If you don't love something, then don't do it.
Ray Bradbury
The books are to remind us what asses and fools we are.
Ray Bradbury
I have something to fight for and live for that makes me a better killer. I've got what amounts to a religion , now .
Ray Bradbury
If someone tells you to do something for money, tell them to go to hell.
Ray Bradbury
Those women like to see their tongues dance.
Ray Bradbury
The first thing a writer should be is - excited. He should be a thing of fevers and enthusiasms. Without such vigor, he might as well be out picking peaches or digging ditches God knows it'd be better for his health.
Ray Bradbury
How talented was death. How many expressions and manipulations of hand, face, body, no two alike.
Ray Bradbury
Marriage made people old and familiar, while still young.
Ray Bradbury
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
