Robert A. Heinlein
It seems to me that the secret of true happiness in life is to know what you are and then be content to be that, in style, head up and proud, and not yearn to be something else.
Robert A. Heinlein
A prude is a person who thinks that his own rules of propriety are natural laws.
Robert A. Heinlein
Women will forgive anything. Otherwise, the race would have died out long ago.
Robert A. Heinlein
Your enemy is never a villain in his own eyes.
Robert A. Heinlein
All human behavior, all human motivations, all man’s hopes and fears, were heavily colored and largely controlled by mankind’s tragic and oddly beautiful pattern of reproduction.
Robert A. Heinlein
Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
