Quote by Robert A. Heinlein

The universe never did make sense I suspect it was built on

Summary

This quote humorously suggests that the complexity and irrationality of the universe can be compared to a project or system created by a government. It implies that governments often make things overly complicated or confusing, so it humorously speculates that the universe must have been constructed in a similar manner. This statement highlights the paradoxical and baffling nature of the world we live in, playfully attributing it to a hypothetical government contract.

God who gave us life gave us liberty. 1 Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever. 2 Commerce between master and slave is despotism. 3 Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than that these people are to be free. 4 Establish the law for educating the common people. 5 This it is the business of the State to effect and on a general plan. 6
