Stranger In a Strange Land

"UN Secret Police breaking down door while Jubal contacts the Secretary
General via his astrologer."

Rocket Ship Galileo

"Launching before being served by court order -- see also 'The Man Who Sold
the Moon' and the movie 'Destination Moon'."

The Notebooks of Lazaraus Long

"Beware of strong drink.  It might make you shoot at tax collectors -- and
miss."
