 Go to the edge of the cliff and jump off. Build your wings on the way down. 
(Ray Bradbury in  the Brown Daily Herald. March 24, 1995.)

If you can't read and write you can't think. Your thoughts are dispersed if you don't know how to read and write. You've got to be able to look at your thoughts on paper and discover what a fool you were.  (Salon.com, August 29, 2001)

Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It's self-conscious and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can't try to do things. You simply must do things.

--Thanks to Ray Bradbury Online for the quotes.
"A Sound of Thunder"
