"I've only written one science-fiction book: 'Fahrenheit..." - Quote by Ray Bradbury

“Man has always been half-monster, half-dreamer.”

“Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you're there.”

“Chock them so ... full of "facts" they feel stuffed, but absolutely "brilliant" with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving.”

“Science Fiction has always been and will always be a fable teacher of morality.”

“I define science fiction as the art of the possible. Fantasy is the art of the impossible.”

“Men read science fiction to build the future. Women don't need to read it. They are the future.”

“Books are alive, you see. They're not dead, they're alive.”

“How many a man has dated a new era in his life from the reading of a book.”

“If men were to be destroyed and the books they have written were to be transmitted to a new race of creatures, in a new world, what kind of record would be found in them of so remarkable a phenomenon as the rainbow?”
