"Stuff your eyes with wonder. Live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made up or paid for in factories." (Fahrenheit 451)
The author of that line was almost singlehandedly responsible for transforming the genre of science fiction (though he claimed that was not what he wrote) to elevated literature. Ray Bradbury passed beyond this world with the transit of Venus, age 91. Cause of death was not given.
His stories of small-town Illinois populated by April witches and rocket pilots, visited by a strange circus and the chiropractor from Hell, where you can hunt dinosaurs or fly to the Sun, are the most inspiring and most frightening stories I read in my childhood. He will be greatly missed.
