More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
General, man is very useful. He can fly and he can kill. But he has one defect: He can think.
Bertolt Brecht
When the leaders speak of peace, the common folk know war is coming.
Bertolt Brecht
He who speaks of enemies , himself is the enemy.
Bertolt Brecht
To those who does not know the world is on fire, I have nothing to say.
Bertolt Brecht
There are a few things that'll move people to pity, a few, but the trouble is, when they've been used several times, they no longer work.
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
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
For art to be 'unpolitical' means only to ally itself with the 'ruling' group.
Bertolt Brecht
When something seems ‘the most obvious thing in the world’ it means that any attempt to understand the world has been given up.
Bertolt Brecht
...it is simplicity that is difficult to make.
Bertolt Brecht
He who fights, can lose. He who doesn't fight, has already lost.
Bertolt Brecht
It was never decreed that a god mustn't pay hotel bills.
Bertolt Brecht
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
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
The right to happiness is fundamental men live so little time and die alone.
Bertolt Brecht
Unhappiness doesn't grow on the chest like leprosy. Poverty won't fall off the roof like a loose tile, no poverty and unhappiness are man's doing.
Bertolt Brecht
You don't need to pray to God any more when there are storms in the sky, but you do have to be insured.
Bertolt Brecht
A theater without beer is just a museum
Bertolt Brecht
I don't know what a man is. Only that every man has his price.
Bertolt Brecht
For what's the use of talking with a man who has a disease and thinks about the stars?
Bertolt Brecht
