Ray Bradbury

.
Ray Bradbury's message to would-be writers, June 24th, '06, in Santa Barbara, CA...but he's talking about life-

"You're supposed to be having fun!

to be in love.
And not to think about it;
and not to worry, and not to be unhappy...

If you're going to ruin your life with thinking;
I want to you make your life with feeling...with feeling!
...with loving.
That's what you're here for!
You've been put in the world, to love the act of being alive!!!"

R. Bradbury
