More quotes by Robert A. Heinlein
There is no way that writers can be tamed and rendered civilized. Or even cured.
Robert A. Heinlein
Being privileged to work hard for long hours at something you think is worth doing is the best kind of play.
Robert A. Heinlein
You don’t pay back, you pay forward.
Robert A. Heinlein
Tilting at windmills hurts you more than the windmills.
Robert A. Heinlein
Sin lies only in hurting others unnecessarily. All other sins are invented nonsense.
Robert A. Heinlein
Learning . . . is - also an end in itself.
Robert A. Heinlein
There are no dangerous weapons there are only dangerous men.
Robert A. Heinlein
A fool cannot be protected from his folly. If you attempt to do so, you will not only arouse his animosity but also you will be attempting to deprive him of whatever benefit he is capable of deriving from experience. Never attempt to teach a pig to sing it wastes your time and annoys the pig.
Robert A. Heinlein
Cheops' Law: Nothing ever gets built on schedule or within budget.
Robert A. Heinlein
Civilians are like beans you buy 'em as needed for any job which merely requires skill and savvy. But you can't buy fighting spirit.
Robert A. Heinlein
Geniuses and supergeniuses always make their own rules about sex as on everything else they do not accept the monkey customs of their lessers.
Robert A. Heinlein
There will always be survivors.
Robert A. Heinlein
Teaching causes people to go into situations from which they cannot escape, except by thinking. Do not handicap children by making their lives easy.
Robert A. Heinlein
Wisdom includes not getting angry unnecessarily. The Law ignores trifles and the wise man does, too.
Robert A. Heinlein
There is solemn satisfaction in doing the best you can for eight billion people. Perhaps their lives have no cosmic significance, but they have feelings. They can hurt.
Robert A. Heinlein
Sovereign, like love, means anything you want it to mean it's a word in dictionary between sober and sozzled.
Robert A. Heinlein
Figure out for yourself what you want to be really good at, know that you'll never really satisfy yourself that you've made it, and accept that that's okay.
Robert A. Heinlein
Nothing of value is free. Even the breath of life is purchased at birth only through gasping effort and pain.
Robert A. Heinlein
Avoid making irrevocable decisions while tired or hungry.
Robert A. Heinlein
Girls are simply wonderful. Just to stand on a corner and watch them going past is delightful. They don't walk. At least not what we do when we walk. I don't know how to describe it, but it's much more complex and utterly delightful. They don't move just their feet everything moves and in different directions . . . and all of it graceful.
