It’s a quote from a character in Heinlein’s fiction. A human character with a lifespan of over a thousand years.

I too liked that quote and found it inspiring. Until I read the book, that is.



I know the character is Lazarus Long. Which book was this quote in?


This is one of the cases where you should indeed rely on Google.


You just created a modern take on LMGTFY


It's now pronounced LMCGPTTFY


I've had people do this to me (albeit in an attempt to be helpful, not snarky) and it felt so weird. The answers are something a copywriter would have thrown together in an hour. Generic, unhelpful drivel.


Seems to be from the book "Time Enough for Love"
