The quote "Don't tell me what I'm doing. I don't want to know." is mentioned by Ray Bradbury within an interview with Ray published on the Bradbury website.

"See, I live like Federico Fellini. He was a good friend, and he said -- and it's one of my favorite sayings -- 'Don't tell me what I'm doing; I don't want to know.' Get your work done. Then, after it's done, you find out what you did. But you can't know ahead of time. So, therefore, the unconscious act turns into creativity."
