More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
What's a joy to the one is a nightmare to the other.
Bertolt Brecht
We need a type of theatre which not only releases the feelings, insights and impulses possible within the particular historical field of human relations in which the action takes place, but employs and encourages those thoughts and feelings which help transform the field itself.
Bertolt Brecht
War is like love, it always finds a way.
Bertolt Brecht
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
People remain what they are even if their faces fall apart.
Bertolt Brecht
The aim of science is not to open the door to infinite wisdom, but to set a limit to infinite error.
Bertolt Brecht
Eats first, morals after.
Bertolt Brecht

Bertolt Brecht

Bertolt Brecht
Sometimes I have visions of myself driving through hell, selling sulphur and brimstone, or through heaven peddling refreshments to the roaming souls. If me and the children I've got left could find a place where there's no shooting, I wouldn't mind a few years of peace and quiet.
Bertolt Brecht
Grub first, then ethics.
Bertolt Brecht
Things take indeed a wondrous turn When learned men do stoop to learn.
Bertolt Brecht
With drooping shoulders The majority sit hunched, their foreheads furrowed like Stony ground that has been repeatedly ploughed-up to no purpose.
Bertolt Brecht
Do not fear death so much but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
From the start it has been the theatre's business to entertain people ... it needs no other passport than fun.
Bertolt Brecht
The more innocent they are, the more they deserve to be shot.
Bertolt Brecht
