I’ll take Ray Bradbury over Cormac any day:

Ray Bradbury:

“My love of writing is like a lark, flying free. I don’t recognize gravity. Gravity doesn’t exist for me.”

” If you are writing without zest, without gusto, without love, without fun, you are only half a writer”

“That’s my broad and fascinating field, in which I will wander for a lifetime, writing past science fictions one day, future ones another. And all of it a wonder and a lark and a great love. I can’t imagine writing ANY other way.”
