Ray Bradbury Quotes

What Will That Mean To Each Of You? It Will Mean That Those Of You Who Might Have Lived To Be Seventy-one Must Die At Seventy. Some Of You Who Might Have Lived To Be Eighty-six Must Cough Up Your Ghost At Eighty-five. That's A Great Age. A Year More Or Less Doesn't Sound Like Much. When The Time Comes, Boys, You May Regret. But, You Will Be Able To Say, This Year I Spent Well, I Gave For Pip, I Made A Loan Of Life For Sweet Pipkin, The Fairest Apple That Ever Almost Fell Too Early Off The Harvest Tree. Some Of You At Forty-nine Must Cross Life Off At Forty-eight. Some At Fifty-five Must Lay Them Down To Forever's Sleep At Fifty-four. Do You Catch The Whole Thing Intact Now, Boys? Do You Add The Figures? Is The Arithmetic Plain? A Year! Who Will Bid Three Hundred And Sixty-five Entire Days From Out His Own Soul, To Get Old Pipkin Back? Think, Boys. Silence. Then, Speak.
