QUOTES OF THE DAY 7-3-13

“Taxes are not levied for the benefit of the taxed.”
Robert A. Heinlein

“Do this. Don’t do that. Stay back in line. Where’s tax receipt? Fill out form. Let’s see license. Submit six copies. Exit only. No left turn. No right turn. Queue up and pay fine. Take back and get stamped. Drop dead— but first get permit.”
Robert A. Heinlein

“Stupidity cannot be cured. Stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death. There is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity.”
Robert A. Heinlein

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

“Does history record any case in which the majority was right?”
Robert A. Heinlein

“Liberty is never unalienable; it must be redeemed regularly with the blood of patriots or it always vanishes. Of all the so-called natural human rights that have ever been invented, liberty is least likely to be cheap and is never free of cost.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers

“Take sides! Always take sides! You will sometimes be wrong – but the man who refuses to take sides must always be wrong.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Double Star

“There is no safety this side of the grave”
Robert A. Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land

“Some people insist that ‘mediocre’ is better than ‘best.’ They delight in clipping wings because they themselves can’t fly. They despise brains because they have none.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Have Space Suit—Will Travel

“Certainly the game is rigged. Don’t let that stop you; if you don’t bet you can’t win.”
Robert A. Heinlein, Time Enough for Love

“Remember though, your best weapon is between your ears and under your scalp -provided it’s loaded.”
Robert A. Heinlein
