Ray Bradbury

Digression is the soul of wit.

Ray Bradbury

Disbelief is catching. It rubs off on people.

Ray Bradbury

Do three things each night before you go to bed: read a poem, read a short story, read an essay.

Ray Bradbury

Do what you love, don’t do anything else.

Ray Bradbury

Do your own bit of saving, and if you drown, at least die knowing you were headed for shore.

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

Don’t try to write a novel. Write short stories and then figure out how to connect them.

Ray Bradbury

Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spend the rest of the day putting the pieces together.

Ray Bradbury

Every story I’ve written was written because I had to write it. Writing stories is like breathing for me; it is my life.

Ray Bradbury

Everybody has forgotten that Russia helped start the Second World War.
