Robert A. Heinlein
“Between two evils, I choose the one I’ve never tried before.”
Heinlein Robert A.

“The first principle of freedom is the right to go to hell in your own handbasket.”
Robert Heinlein

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.”
Robert A. Heinlein, The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress

Robert A. Heinlein
“The correct way to punctuate a sentence that states: "Of course it is none of my business, but -- " is to place a period after the word "but." Don't use excessive force in supplying such a moron with a period. Cutting his throat is only a momentary pleasure and is bound to get you talked about.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Time Enough for Love

Robert A. Heinlein
“But goodness alone is never enough. A hard, cold wisdom is required for goodness to accomplish good. Goodness without wisdom always accomplishes evil.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land
