I put it in quotes, and gave the initials of the author- sorry if some did not notice. Not exactly plagiarization.

Robert Anson Heinlein

There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him.


It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so, and will follow it by suppressing opposition, subverting all education to seize early the minds of the young, and by killing, locking up, or driving underground all heretics.


The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.


A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
