Ray Bradbury Interviews

From the few interviews we read and watched about Ray Bradbury, I was able to learn alot about him and his reasons for doing certain things. I think that Fahrenheit 451 is a great contrast with who Ray is as a person, because of his message, "do what you love. love what you do." This message talks about living your life to the fullest while Fahrenheit 451 is all about people that don't really live at all. This shows how imaginitive Bradbury is and proves that it is like a "theatre" in his head. At one point in Ray's interview, he mentioned that in F451 Clarisse is him in a sense because of her love of life at such a young age, as Ray had. I think that what Ray is saying is that teaching children young will make them love life as it made both him and Clarisse love life.
