Ray Bradbury
“Life is trying things to see if they work.”
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury
“Writing is not a serious business. It’s a joy and a celebration. You should be having fun with it. Ignore the authors who say ‘Oh, my God, what word? Oh, Jesus Christ…’, you know. Now, to hell with that. It’s not work. If it’s work, stop and do something else.”
Ray Bradbury

Friedrich Nietzsche
“The most intelligent men, like the strongest, find their happiness where others would find only disaster: in the labyrinth, in being hard with themselves and with others, in effort; their delight is in self-mastery; in them asceticism becomes second nature, a necessity, an instinct. They regard a difficult task as a privilege; it is to them a recreation to play with burdens that would crush all others.”
Nietzsche

Fiona Apple
“Everybody acts like I'm nuts. I'm not nuts I just want to feel it all.”
Fiona Apple

Ray Bradbury
“School is shortened, discipline relaxed, philosophies, histories, languages dropped, English and spelling gradually neglected, finally almost completely ignored. Life is immediate, the job counts, pleasure lies all about after work. Why learn anything save pressing buttons, pulling switches, fitting nuts and bolts?”
Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
