Ray Bradbury Quote

Everyone in the world needs two, three jobs, I said, without hesitation. One job isn’t enough, just as one life isn’t enough. I want to have a dozen of both. Bull’s-eye. Doctors should dig ditches. Ditchdiggers ought to run kindergartens one day a week. Philosophers should wash dishes in a greasy spoon two nights out of ten. Mathematicians should blow whistles at high school gyms. Poets should drive trucks for a change of menu and police detectives— Should own and operate the Garden of Eden, I said, quietly.
