Rules of Life of Ray Bradbury
What is the universe? This is a great theater. A theater audience need. We - the audience. Life on Earth was created then to witness and enjoy the show. That's why we're here. And if you do not like the play - Get out to the devil!
If people day and night thinking about death, he would be Woody Allen.
In the coming years we will return to the moon. We will fly to Mars and we justify it in the next couple of hundred years. And then, I suppose, will fly to Alpha Centauri.
It took me ten years to ensure that the first to write a passable story.
When we got married Maggie 60 years ago, we had no money. Our bank account was $ 8. The first two years we did not even have a phone. We rented a tiny apartment in Venice, next to the petrol station. It hung on the wall and my first phone. I ran to it, picked up the receiver, and people thought that I call home. Not even a phone, let alone a car. But you know what we had? Love.
We all - the time machine. That's why all my life I am under the charm of the old. Because I know: Now tap the hidden button and find myself in 1900. Or, in the Civil War ... And a child I met veterans of the Civil War!
All the girls, whom I met in his youth, were the librarians.
In a good marriage always people teach each other. You teach each other life science. Everyday touching lying on one pillow, you affect each other involuntarily.
Do not write mind - you have to be in writing, to live life on the machine.
Do not try to keep track of all the movies with their bombings and other commonplace. Watch necessary for the great directors. Just recently I reviewed "Lawrence of Arabia" David Lean. I have laid the soul, only to write the script for this director.
A good filmmaker should be a writer. It should be full of details.
You can not live like a child who can not wait Christmas with gifts under the Christmas tree. All my life I wake up and say to myself: "I can not wait for the day it».
Russia will become the heavy-duty power only thanks to the fact that people will learn to love themselves. This convinces me Russian literature, Russian movies.
We need to be constantly in a state of love in something. In my case - in books, in writing.
If something you do not like - do not do it. Conversely, if you like, overpower anything.
I go to parties in Hollywood, vizhus with famous directors and producers. And on his return from his stomach I asked: "How?". And sometimes, the stomach responds, "Uh-uh." And if so, I will never set foot there. My stomach knows if I look in the face of a liar or a thief, or simply foolish man.
I do not think about death, because I somehow always be here. This box with my films and shelves with my books are convinced that the other hundred-years I have left.
Death - is a form of reckoning with space for a wonderful luxury to stay alive.
For myself, I know I did a good job every day of my life, eighty years. It's fucking great, right?
