If you're reluctant to weep, you won't live a full and complete life. (Ray Bradbury)

At the center of religion is love. I love you and I forgive you. I am like you and you are like me. I love all people. I love the world. I love creating. Everything in our life should be based on love.

Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury

The women in my life have all been librarians, English teachers, or booksellers. If they couldn't speak pidgin Tolstoy, articulate Henry James, or give me directions to Usher and Ox, it was no go. I have always longed for education, and pillow talk's the best.

Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury

So few want to be rebels anymore. And out of those few, most, like myself, scare easily.

Ray Bradbury

Oh God, the terrible tyranny of the majority. We all have our harps to play. And it's up to you to know with which ear you'll listen.

Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury

We earth men have a talent for ruining big, beautiful things.

Ray Bradbury

Science is no more than an investigation of a miracle we can never explain, and art is an interpretation of that miracle.

Ray Bradbury

I'm ALIVE. Thinking about it, noticing it, is new. You do things and don't watch. Then all of a sudden you look and see what you're doing and it's the first time, really.

Ray Bradbury

No person ever died that had a family.

Ray Bradbury
