Entersection is a website that presents quotations, some of them quite extensive. It's one of those sites that you could spend hours browsing. A recent addition is this section from Ahmed and the Oblivion Machines. I have a copy of Ahmed, but have not yet found the time to read it. Little did I know that it includes a re-telling of Icarus, incorporating Bradbury's oft-repeated phrase about jumping off a cliff and building your wings on the way down...Cory Doctorow has just published a review of a young adult book called The Boneshaker, by Kate Milford. He describes it as "filled [with] the rich Bradbury stuff, that haunting and deliciously spooky stuff that lives in the shadows and ride through the land on creaking wagons with dusty brocade curtains". Read the review here, and see the publisher's page for the novel here.

Hi Phil, thanks for the kind words about my website Entersection. I currently have one other quotation by Ray Bradbury posted, a brief one from Fahrenheit 451. But that's not as interesting as the classic 1966 film trailer I have embedded there :)
You're welcome!
