Text Quotes
By cultivating the beautiful we scatter the seeds of heavenly flowers, as by doing good we cultivate those that belong to humanity.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Nursing does not diminish the beauty of a woman’s breasts; it enhances their charm by making them look lived in and happy.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Do-gooding is like treating hemophilia - the real cure is to let hemophiliacs bleed to death...before they breed more hemophiliacs.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Being sorry won’t get you into heaven. Get happy, son. Get that old spring into your step and stay on your toes.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay; and claims a halo for his dishonesty.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) I don’t see why human people make such a heavy trip out of sex. It isn’t anything complex, it is simply the best thing in life, even better than food.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) In past history popularly elected governments have been no better and sometimes far worse than overt tyrannies.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Delusions are often functional. A mother’s opinions about her children’s beauty, intelligence, goodness, et cetera ad nauseam, keep her from drowning them at birth.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Nothing of value is free. Even the breath of life is purchased at birth only through gasping effort and pain.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Theology is never any help; it is searching in a dark cellar at midnight for a black cat that isn’t there. Theologians can persuade themselves of anything.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) A desire not to butt into other people’s business is at least eighty percent of all human wisdom.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) If a country can’t save itself through the volunteer service of its own free people, then I say : Let the damned thing go down the drain!  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Certainly the game is rigged. Don’t let that stop you; if you don’t bet you can’t win.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) I have never been able to see life as anything but a vast complicated practical joke, and it’s better to laugh than cry.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) When a place gets crowded enough to require ID’s, social collapse is not far away. It is time to go elsewhere. The best thing about space travel is that it made it possible to go elsewhere.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Marriage is a psychological condition, not a civil contract and a license. Once a marriage is dead, it is dead, and it begins to stink faster than a dead fish.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Once a man gets a reputation as a liar, he might as well be struck dumb, for people do not listen to the wind.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) If you do not believe that a man will commit murder for one can of tomatoes, then you have never been hungry.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) You got the impression that he never needed to sleep - just ten-thousand-mile checkups and dust him off occasionally.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) To be matter-of-fact about the world is to blunder into fantasy - and dull fantasy at that, as the real world is strange and wonderful.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) 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 Quotes) I have never been able to see how a thirty-year old moron can vote more wisely than a fifteen-year old genius...  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) The right to figure things out for yourself is the only true freedom everyone shares. Go use it.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) There are only five things really worth drawing; four of them are pretty girls and the fifth is cats.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) It is impossible for anyone to be responsible for another person’s behavior. The most you or any leader can do is to encourage each one to be responsible for himself.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) But, if there ever was a time in history when peace meant that there was no fighting going on, I have been unable to find out about it.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Whoring is like military service...okay in the upper brackets, not so good lower down.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Why do some people act as if making money offended their delicate minds? I am out for a legitimate profit, and not ashamed of it; the fact that people will pay money for my goods and services shows that my work is useful.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) Humoring them costs nothing and adds to happiness in a world in which happiness is always in short supply.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes) You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don’t ever count on having both at once.  (Robert A Heinlein Quotes)
