Ray Bradbury quotes
Bill, I don't do Windows.
Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It's self-conscious and anything self-conscious is lousy. You cannot try to do things. You simply must do things.
Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me.After the explosion, I spent the rest of the day putting the pieces together.
Find out what your hero or heroine wants, and when he or she wakes up in the morning, just follow him or her all day.
First you jump off the cliff and you build wings on the way down.
I don't try to describe the future. I try to prevent it.
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.
If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.
If you don't like what you're doing, then don't do it.
If you dream the proper dreams, and share the myths with people, they will want to grow up to be like you.
Living at risk is jumping off the cliff and building your wings on the way down.
Love. Fall in love and stay in love. Write only what you love, and love what you write. The key word is love. You have to get up in the morning and write something you love, something to live for.
My stories run up and bite me on the leg-I respond by writing down everything that goes on during the bite. When I finish, the idea lets go and runs off.
The best scientist is open to experience and begins with romance - the idea that anything is possible.
The television, that insidious beast, that Medusa which freezes a billion people to stone every night, staring fixedly, that Siren which called and sang and promised so much and gave, after all, so little.
