that's Hanlon, not Heinlein. to be on the safe side, I won't attempt to attribute your mistake to anything.
Fair enough. The only time I've seen it in dead-tree print was in Heinlein's _Time Enough For Love_, unattributed to anyone else. Googlespace seems to be not entirely sure whether "Hanlon" is real or is a corruption of "Heinlein". Googling for quote attributions is a tricky proposition at best, though.
