Ray Bradbury Typewriters Quotations

The great fun in my life has been getting up every morning and rushing to the typewriter because some new idea has hit me.

I don't have a computer. A computer's a typewriter. I already have a typewriter.

What should I do?" "Throw up in your typewriter every morning." "Yeah." "Clean up every noon.

I can write faster on a typewriter than you can on a computer. I do 120 words a minute, and you can't do that on a computer.

I am a dedicated madman, and that becomes its own training. If you can't resist, if the typewriter is like candy to you, you train yourself for a lifetime. Every single day of your life, some wild new thing to be done. You write to please yourself. You write for the joy of writing. Then your public reads you and it begins to gather around your selling a potato peeler in an alley, you know. The enthusiasm, the joy itself draws me. So that means every day of my life I've written. When the joy stops, I'll stop writing.

My passions drive me to the typewriter every day of my life, and they have driven me there since I was twelve. So I never have to worry about schedules. Some new thing is always exploding in me, and it schedules me, I don’t schedule it. It says: Get to the typewriter right now and finish this.
