Ray Bradbury (Ray Douglas Bradbury) Quotes
"Oh, ancient god, whatever your name," whispered Ahmed. "Help this lost son of a good father, this evil boy who meant no harm but slept in school, ran errands slowly, did not pray from his heart, ignored his mother, and did not hold his family in great esteem.

I wasn't scared of cinematography anymore.
