More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
Impact lies in the vicinity of mistakes.
Bertolt Brecht
It was never decreed that a god mustn't pay hotel bills.
Bertolt Brecht
He who fights, can lose. He who doesn't fight, has already lost.
Bertolt Brecht
What kind of times are they, when A talk about trees is almost a crime Because it implies silence about so many horrors?
Bertolt Brecht
When you name yourself, you always name another.
Bertolt Brecht
If you join the rat race — you're in the race of rats.
Bertolt Brecht
Who built the seven gates of Thebes? In the books are listed the names of kings. Did the kings heave up the building blocks?
Bertolt Brecht
What rapture, oh, it is to know A good thing when you see it And having seen a good thing, oh, What rapture 'tis to flee it.
Bertolt Brecht
Recently my fingers have developed a prejudice against comparatives. They all follow this pattern: a squirrel is smaller than a tree a bird is more musical than a tree. Each of us is the strongest one in his or her own skin. Characteristics should take off their hats to one another, instead of spitting in each other's faces.
Bertolt Brecht
Suppose they gave a war, and nobody came? Why then, the war would come to you!
Bertolt Brecht
It's never too late for those whose time has come.
Bertolt Brecht
The righteous one has no sense of humor.
Bertolt Brecht
Temptation to behave is terrible.
Bertolt Brecht
One can describe the world of today to the people of today only if one describes it as capable of alteration.
Bertolt Brecht
War is like love, it always finds a way.
Bertolt Brecht
The human race tends to remember the abuses to which it has been subjected rather than the endearments. What's left of kisses? Wounds, however, leave scars.
Bertolt Brecht
Let nothing be called natural In an age of bloody confusion, Ordered disorder, planned caprice, And dehumanized humanity, lest all things Be held unalterable!
Bertolt Brecht
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
You have to attack once the truth is too weak to defend itself.
Bertolt Brecht
Art is not a mirror held up to reality but a hammer with which to shape it.
Bertolt Brecht
