Great dramaRobert A. Heinlein
I'm fond of Robert Heinlein, especially his character Lazarus Long (Methuselah's Children, Time Enough for Love), the oldest member of the human race and a man who had many wives and who kept journals of history. Some things Lazarus said: "Always store beer in a dark place."Nice and cold in the fridge is best. "Place your clothes and weapons where you can find them in the dark."You never know when Amanda will come banging your door down in the middle of the night. "A poet who reads his verse in public may have other nasty habits."Hello? Byron? "A motion to adjourn is always in order."Or as I say: If they carry a sword and I haven't been fully introduced, I get shy. And my personal favorite: "A fake fortuneteller can be tolerated. But an authentic soothsayer should be shot on sight. Cassandra did not get half the kicking around she deserved." |
