I wrote a letter to Ray Bradbury, the author of Fahrenheit 451, last month. I never expected him to reply at all or even read it, but he did! I was super excited. I wrote that his book inspired me to pursue my future career.
This was his response...
Quote:
Dear Daphne,
If you ask me what to do to help young people with the future, there is only one answer in life, do what you love and love what you do. Money is not what should be your controlling interest in life, love is.
Live in a library, if that is what you want, let the books teach you, surround you with their love. Then you will be prepared to teach the children of the future.
Love is the answer to everything. There is nothing wrong with today as long as you ignore all the outside distractions and do what you love. There is too much junk around us, ignore them.
When you go to bed tonight, look-up and when you see yourself on the ceiling think about what you want. In the morning, get up and do what you want. If you can teach them, the children, that you will become a great teacher."
Ray Bradbury
