Looking back over a lifetime, you see that love was the answer to everything.

Love, Life, Getting Older

"A man who won't forget Ray Bradbury" by Neil Gaiman, www.theguardian.com. June 6, 2012.

The years go by. The time, it does fly. Every single second is a moment in time that passes. And it seems like nothing - but when you're looking back ... well, it amounts to everything.

Life, Years, Doe

Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.

Inspirational, Life, Dream

Ray Bradbury (2016). “Fahrenheit 451”, p.76, Hamilton Books

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

Inspirational, Life, Art

Ray Bradbury (2012). “The Martian Chronicles”, p.88, Simon and Schuster

Why the Egyptian, Arabic, Abyssinian, Choctaw? Well, what tongue does the wind talk? What nationality is a storm? What country do rains come from? What color is lightning? Where does thunder goe when it dies?

Life, Country, Rain

Ray Bradbury (2013). “Something Wicked This Way Comes”, p.8, Harper Collins

We were put here as witnesses to the miracle of life. We see the stars, and we want them. We are beholden to give back to the universe. If we make landfall on another star system, we become immortal.

Life, Stars, Giving

Speech to National School Board Association, 1995.

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.

I want to feel all there is to feel, he thought. Let me feel tired, now, let me feel tired. I mustn't forget, I'm alive, I know I'm alive, I mustn't forget it tonight or tomorrow or the day after that.

Life, Tired, Tonight

Ray Bradbury (2012). “Dandelion Wine”, p.14, HarperCollins UK
