About This Quote
Ray Bradbury wrote, “At times, I have been convinced that books hold all the material of life--at least all the stuff that fits between an A and a Z.” Ray Bradbury was a prolific writer who is credited with writing over 550 books. He also created the popular TV series "Fahrenheit 451" and wrote scripts for several other iconic works such as "The Twilight Zone" and "The Martian Chronicles." Ray said this after reading page after page of a book and still never getting around to finishing it. Ray's philosophy was that life isn't like a book, and sometimes we need to take a break from reading.
