Since when was an emotional argument won by logic?
Robert A. Heinlein
The ordinary bloke will not voluntarily pay for art that leaves him unmoved--if he does pay for it, the money has to be conned out of him, by taxes and such.
Robert A. Heinlein
Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites. Moderation is for monks.
Robert A. Heinlein
Nowhere on Earth was sex so vigorously suppressed as in America--and nowhere else was there such a deep interest in it.
Robert A. Heinlein
Evolution is a process that never stops. Baboons who fail to exhibit moral behavior do not survive they wind up as meat for leopards.
Robert A. Heinlein
