Zen Pencils by Gavin Aung Than for May 15, 2015
Transcript:
If we listened to our intellect we’d never have a love affair. We’d never have a friendship. We’d be cynical. “It’s gonna go wrong.” “She’s going to hurt me.” “I’ve had a couple of bad love affairs, so therefore…” Well, that’s nonsense. You’re going to miss life. You’ve got to jump off the cliff all the time… …and build your wings on the way down. - Ray Bradbury

Building your wings on the way down is fine, but a rocket pack is a great comfort.

The late and sadly missed Ray Bradbury.

Just rereading “Dandelion Wine” and “Farewell Summer”. I don’t know of a better author to make us see a greater reality through heightened fantasy. Always loved Ray, ever since I read “The Martian Chronicles” in the ’50’s. I remember him as an acerbic yet also warmly humorous fellow. We’re lucky to have had him on the planet!
