Quotation #20725 from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

The phrase "we (I) (you) simply must..." designates something that need not be done. "That goes without saying" is a red warning. "Of course" means you had best check it yourself. These small-change cliches and others like them, when read correctly, are reliable channel markers.
Excerpt from the notebooks of Lazarus Long, from Robert Heinlein's "Time Enough for Love"
