Famous quotes containing the words bradbury and/or building:
“I don’t try to describe the future. I try to prevent it.”
—Ray Bradbury (b. 1920)
“There is something about the literary life that repels me, all this desperate building of castles on cobwebs, the long-drawn acrimonious struggle to make something important which we all know will be gone forever in a few years, the miasma of failure which is to me almost as offensive as the cheap gaudiness of popular success.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
