"A society that gets rid of all its troublemakers goes downhill." ― Robert A. Heinlein Topic(s): Society More From Robert A. Heinlein "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." "One could write a history of science in reverse by assembling the solemn pronouncements of highest authority about what could not be done and could never happen." "The difference between science and the fuzzy subjects is that science requires reasoning while those other subjects merely require scholarship." More In Society "Having enough to eat, being able to educate your children, have reasonably stable employment, and being able to live in a society which isn’t collapsing around you-all of these things have been generally eroded."― Susan George "Our modern society – especially in the West, and especially now – reveres youth."― Clint Eastwood "That’s what the Romney plan is all about, how to get jobs created, how to get this debt and deficit under control, how to revive small businesses so we can create jobs, and how to bring growth and opportunity to society instead of this class warfare, instead of speaking to people like they’re stuck in some class or station in life."― Paul Ryan
