Robert A. Heinlein Quotes on Relationships

11 quotes

  1. Listen, son. Most women are damn fools and children. But they've got more range then we've got. The brave ones are braver, the good ones are better - and the vile ones are viler, for that matter.

  2. Love is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.

  3. Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often confuses one for the other, or assumes the greater the love, the greater the jealousy. In fact they are almost incompatible; both at once produce unbearable turmoil.

  4. A woman is not property, and husbands who think otherwise are living in a dreamworld.

  5. Dear, don't bore him with trivia or burden him with your past mistakes. The happiest way to deal with a man is never to tell him anything he does not need to know.

  6. If you don't like yourself, you can't like other people.

  7. Money is a powerful aphrodisiac. But flowers work almost as well.

  8. Rub her feet.

  9. Sex should be friendly. Otherwise stick to mechanical toys; it's more sanitary.

  10. The more you love, the more you can love - and the more intensely you love. Nor is there any limit on how many you can love. If a person had time enough, he could love all of that majority who are decent and just.

  11. Premenstrual Syndrome: Just before their periods women behave the way men do all the time.
