HANLON'S RAZOR

HANLON'S RAZOR: "Never attribute to malice what is adequately explained by stupidity."

-Submitted by Robert Hanlon to Arthur Bloch's book, Murphy's Law Book Two: More Reasons Why Things Go Wrong! (1980).  Equivalent to a quote in Robert Heinlein's story Logic of Empire (1941) where a character states, "You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity."
