Robert A. Heinlein
Budget the luxuries first.
Robert A. Heinlein
Nobody has ever seen an electron. Nor a thought. You can't see a thought, you can't measure, weigh, nor taste it- but thoughts are the most real things in the Galaxy.
Robert A. Heinlein

Robert A. Heinlein

Robert A. Heinlein
Gratitude: An imaginary emotion that rewards an imaginary behavior, altruism. Both imaginaries are false faces for selfishness, which is a real and honest emotion.
Robert A. Heinlein
Death is the lot of us all, and the only way that the human race has ever conquered death is by treating it with contempt. By living every golden minute as if one had all Eternity.
Robert A. Heinlein
That old saw about the early bird just proves that the worm should have stayed in bed.
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
One man's theology is another man's belly laugh.
Robert A. Heinlein
Ayn Rand is a bloody socialist compared to me.
Robert A. Heinlein
Never encourage a man to cook breakfast it cause him to wonder if women are necessary.
Robert A. Heinlein
