Ray BradburySpace travel is life-enhancing, and anything that's life-enhancing is worth doing. It makes you want to live forever.
Ray BradburyYou're not like the others. I've seen a few; I know. When I talk, you look at me. When I said something about the moon, you looked at the moon.
Ray BradburyWe 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.
Ray Bradbury(in response to the question: what do you think of e-books and Amazonโs Kindle?) Those arenโt books. You canโt hold a computer in your hand like you can a book. A computer does not smell. There are two perfumes to a book. If a book is new, it smells great. If a book is old, it smells even better. It smells like ancient Egypt. A book has got to smell. You have to hold it in your hands and pray to it. You put it in your pocket and you walk with it. And it stays with you forever. But the computer doesnโt do that for you. Iโm sorry.
