More quotes by Robert A. Heinlein
From somewhere, back in my youth, heard Prof say, 'Manuel, when faced with a problem you do not understand, do any part of it you do understand, then look at it again.' He had been teaching me something he himself did not understand very well—something in math—but had taught me something far more important, a basic principle.

Those who refuse to support and defend the state have no claim to protection by that state. Killing an anarchist or a pacifist should not be considered murder in a legalistic sense. The offense against the state, if any, should be Using deadly weapons within city limits, or Creating a traffic hazard, or other misdemeanor.

Robert A. Heinlein
If it can't be expressed in figures, it is not science it is opinion. It has long been known that one horse can run faster than another - but which one? Differences are crucial.
Robert A. Heinlein
It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creeds into law if it acquires the political power to do so, and will follow it by suppressing opposition, subverting all education to seize early the minds of the young, and by killing, locking up, or driving underground all heretics.

A girl's name ending in 'a' - that always suggests a 'C' cup.
Robert A. Heinlein
My old man taught me two things: 'Mind own business' and 'Always cut cards.'
Robert A. Heinlein
Art is the process of evoking pity and terror, which is not abstract at all but very human. What the self-styled modern artists are doing is a sort of unemotional pseudointellectual masturbation . . . whereas creative art is more like intercourse, in which the artist must seduce -- render emotional -- his audience, each time.
Robert A. Heinlein
Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done.
Robert A. Heinlein
Never try to have the last word. You might get it.
Robert A. Heinlein
Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.
Robert A. Heinlein
He's as weird as snake's suspenders but sweet as a stolen kiss, too.
