Always good to start your morning cram packed with quotes…I can now be assured to drive Steve nuts all day 🙂
Made me laugh! Glad you liked ’em!!
great post. I loved them all and Mr Bradbury continues to surprise, delight and inspire me. I hadn’t read that particular quote from him before. 🙂
Glad you liked them. I love Bradbury still and recently re-read The Martian Chronicles . . . I still love the contents, but the writing itself . . . I think I’ll see if the library still has Dandelion Wine. Nothing like words used to make high art . . .
Forgot to say: I think I know what he meant by ‘don’t think’; that negative self-doubt that erodes our confidence and sense of adventure, locking us back in the narrow society-aporoved ‘box’. Creative thinking is a different thing altogether.
that’s true. It doesn’t hurt to shut off the thinker from time to time. I guess it is a like the “mindfulness” people talk about now a days. Just focusing on the shawl, or amigurumi fire engine or what ever one is doing. 🙂
