More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
Come in, dear wind, and be our guest You too have neither home nor rest.
Bertolt Brecht
What's breaking into a bank compared with founding a bank?
Bertolt Brecht
The more innocent they are, the more they deserve to be shot.
Bertolt Brecht
War is like love, it always finds a way.
Bertolt Brecht
Suppose they gave a war, and nobody came? Why then, the war would come to you!
Bertolt Brecht
Never believe on faith, see for yourself! What you yourself don't learn you don't know.
Bertolt Brecht
Reality changes in order to represent it, modes of representation must change.
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
Who fights may lose, but who does not fight has lost already.
Bertolt Brecht
Sin is what is new, strong, surprising, strange. The theatre must take an interest in sin if the young are to be able to go there.
Bertolt Brecht
Righteous people have no sense of humor.
Bertolt Brecht
Grub first, then ethics.
Bertolt Brecht
First the pork chops, then morality
Bertolt Brecht
The finest plans are always ruined by the littleness of those who ought to carry them out, for emperor himself can actually be nothing.
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
Even hatred of vileness Distorts a mans features.
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
Art is not a mirror held up to reality but a hammer with which to shape it.
Bertolt Brecht
When the house of a great one collapses Many little ones are slain.
Bertolt Brecht
What's a joy to the one is a nightmare to the other.
Bertolt Brecht
