Specialisation is for insects!
Robert A. Heinlein
Being generous is inborn being altruistic is a learned perversity. No resemblance --
Robert A. Heinlein
Nor would anybody suspect. If was one thing all people took for granted, was conviction that if you feed honest figures into a computer, honest figures come out. Never doubted it myself till I met a computer with a sense of humor.
Robert A. Heinlein
Gratitude is a euphemism for resentment.
Robert A. Heinlein
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.
Robert A. Heinlein
Remember though, your best weapon is between your ears and under your scalp -provided it's loaded.
Robert A. Heinlein
There are two ways of forming an opinion. One is the scientific method the other, the scholastic. To the scientific mind, experimental proof is all-important, and theory is merely a convenience in description, to be junked when it no longer fits. To the academic mind, authority is everything, and facts are junked when they do not fit theory.
Robert A. Heinlein
Customs tell a man who he is, where he belongs, what he must do. Better illogical customs than none men cannot live together without them.
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
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
The worst that can possibly have happened to him is death and that we are all in for---if not this morning, then in days, or weeks, or years at most.
Robert A. Heinlein
Happiness consists in getting enough sleep. Just that, nothing more.
Robert A. Heinlein
Circumstances can force your hand. So think ahead!
Robert A. Heinlein
Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something.
Robert A. Heinlein
Never tease an old dog he might have one bite left.
Robert A. Heinlein
Damnit! Nationalism should stop at the stratosphere!
Robert A. Heinlein
Love is what still goes on when you're not horny.
Robert A. Heinlein
Self awareness is NOT just a bunch of amino acids bumping together.
Robert A. Heinlein
Spacemen die if they stay in one place.
Robert A. Heinlein
Patriotism is not sentimental nonsense. Nor something dreamed up by demagogues. Patriotism is as necessary a part of man's evolutionary equipment as are his eyes, as useful to the race as eyes are to the individual.
Robert A. Heinlein
