Quote by Ray Bradbury

“But my uncle says that was merely rationalizing it; the real reason, hidden underneath, might be they didn't want people sitting like that, doing nothing, rocking, talking; that was the wrong kind of social life. People talked too much. And they had time to think.”

“Обвинявам се в самадоволство, прикрито зад самобичуване. Обвинявам се, че не умея да обичам. Обвинявам се, че търся само одобрението на жените, а никога не се интересувам от проблемите им. Обвинявам се в естетика без етика. Обвинявам се в интелектуални чикии(впрочем и физически). Обвинявам се в мисловен онанизъм (впрочем и физически). Обвинявам се , че приписвам личните си недостатъци на моето поколение. Обвинявам се , че смесвам разлюбване с повърхостност (защото неспособният на любов не може да разлюби). Обвинявам се ,че търся идеалната жена, макар и да знам, че тя не съществува, и то за да подхранвам вечната си незадоволеност и да се жалвам самоугоднически.”
