I've loved his works for so very long...I sacrificed a lot of "necessary" study hours, to play hooky and read his stories, instead. He's my favorite author for Sci-Fi.

My favorite Ray Bradbury story is “The Fruit at the Bottom of the Bowl.” I have been a Bradbury fan for 50 years and have read most of his short stories.

Enlightening quotes. Thank you for sharing. "You have to know how to accept rejection and reject acceptance". The only person who can reject you is you, and the only person who can truly accept you is also you. Period.

I read a lot of Bradbury science fiction, decades back, and then I grew out out of sci-fi and stopped. His quotes listed here are only so-so. Nothing that is inspirational or insightful. But hey, his stories were great, so he doesn’t have to be great at quotes. And he wasn’t! 🙄
