Robert A. Heinlein
Random chance was not a sufficient explanation of the Universe---in fact, random chance was not sufficient to explain random chance the pot could not hold itself.
Robert A. Heinlein
I wanted the feeling of romance and the sense of wonder I had known as a kid. I wanted the world to be what they had promised me it was going to be - instead of the tawdry, lousy fouled-up mess it is.

Robert A. Heinlein
There is no safety this side of the grave
Robert A. Heinlein
All normal human beings have soi-disant mixed-up glands. The race is divided into two parts: those who know this and those who do not.
Robert A. Heinlein
Logic is a feeble reed, friend. Logic proved that airplanes can't fly and that H-bombs won't work and that stones don't fall out of the sky. Logic is a way of saying that anything which didn't happen yesterday won't happen tomorrow.
Robert A. Heinlein
A motion to adjourn is always in order.
Robert A. Heinlein
You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity.
Robert A. Heinlein
That old saw about the early bird just proves that the worm should have stayed in bed.
Robert A. Heinlein
Widows are far better than brides. They don't tell, they won't yell, they don't swell, they rarely smell, and they're grateful as hell.
Robert A. Heinlein
...a book need never die and should not be killed books were the immortal part of man.
Robert A. Heinlein
Behind every mystery lies another mystery.
