News junkies love to read about others misery. - Ray Bradbury

I’m not afraid. When you live as long as I’ve lived, you lose that, too. I never liked lobster in my life, and mainly because I’d never tried it. On my eightieth birthday I tried it. I can’t say I’m greatly excited over lobster still, but I have no doubt as to its taste now, and I don’t fear it. I dare say death will be a lobster, too, and I can come to terms with it.

The days of the Long Cold are done. Because of this one brave, new-thinking man, summer lives in the winter cave.

Science-fiction balances you on the cliff. Fantasy shoves you off.
