Happy birthday to Robert Heinlein (1907-1988) a prolific American writer considered to be one of the most literary and sophisticated of science-fiction writers. His work continues to have an influence on the science-fiction genre, and on modern culture more generally. 
"Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own."
"Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea."
"I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do."
"Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something."
