Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury is a nostalgic, semi-autobiographical novel capturing the magic of childhood in 1928 Illinois. Unlike his sci-fi works, it's a lyrical meditation on life, death, and memory. Though beloved, it never won major awards, but its poetic style and warmth make it a timeless classic of American literature

“If you don’t want a house built, hide the nails and wood. If you don’t want a man unhappy politically, don’t give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none.” ~ Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451.
"So instead of saying #NonCitizen or #migrant, they're supposed to say #alien. Instead of saying #integration, they're supposed to say #assimilation, things like that. And this particular worker described it as the most #1984 thing that they've ever gotten. And this is happening all across the #government"

Cultural illiteracy is still a huge problem. I just talked to a guy who didn't know who Ray Bradbury was. Ray Fucking Bradbury. He didn't even know about FAHRENHEIT 451. And this guy is reasonably read. Of course, I was polite and gave him the Bradbury stump speech. But if Bradbury -- one of the most eloquent and popular writers of the short story in the 20th century -- can't make it, what hope is there for ANY writer?

Stuff your eyes with wonder... live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.

Bradbury's novella is philosophy and pulp, silly and lyrical, therefore slipping the thoughtful into the story's fun.
The Parker Solar Probe survives its latest encounter with the Sun—closest any manmade object has been to a star, fastest manmade object at nearly 500,000 mph. Time to revisit Ray Bradbury’s “The Golden Apples of the Sun.”

"No front porches. My uncle says there used to be front porches. And people sat there sometimes at night, talking when they wanted to talk, rocking, and not talking when they didn't want to talk. Sometimes they just sat there and thought about things, turned things over. My uncle says the architects got rid of the front porches because they didn't look well. 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. So they ran off with the porches."
