Author Robert A
Heinlen was born on 7 July 1907 - here are 10 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.
- Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.
- Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.
- Don't ever become a pessimist... a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events.
- Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors... and miss.
- No statement should be believed because it is made by an authority.
- How we behave toward cats here below determines our status in heaven.
- The universe never did make sense; I suspect it was built on government contract.
- Don't handicap your children by making their lives easy.
- Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done.
