I loved watching The Ray Bradbury Anthology Series.

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.

Cheryl McMeekin

They're all interesting, never heard of many of them.

Linda Spreng

jcurdie, Nope, they are not the same. Try reading them again.

Linda Spreng

Rick Fitzgerald, Either you've got a different list or you're just plain wrong. Read them again.

I've been a fan for years. My brother turned me on to him.

Magical quotes

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.

Good sayings

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.

Tony Burrett

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! 🙄

Chrissy Krainock Luders

Love them all

Jerome Hiznay

Love his writings and insightful quotes. Fahrenheit 451 is still my favorite novel.
