Ray Bradbury Quotes

I Knew Something Important Had Happened To Me That Day Because Of Mr. Electrico. I Felt Changed. He Gave Me Importance, Immortality, A Mystical Gift. My Life Was Turned Around Completely. It Makes Me Cold All Over To Think About It, But I Went Home And Within Days I Started To Write. I've Never Stopped.
Seventy-seven Years Ago, And I've Remembered It Perfectly. I Went Back And Saw Him That Night. He Sat In The Chair With His Sword, They Pulled The Switch, And His Hair Stood Up. He Reached Out With His Sword And Touched Everyone In The Front Row, Boys And Girls, Men And Women, With The Electricity That Sizzled From The Sword. When He Came To Me, He Touched Me On The Brow, And On The Nose, And On The Chin, And He Said To Me, In A Whisper, "Live Forever." And I Decided To.
