Bertolt Brecht
Who fights may lose, but who does not fight has lost already.

Bertolt Brecht
Great sport begins at a point where it has ceased to be healthy.
Bertolt Brecht
Suppose they gave a war, and nobody came? Why then, the war would come to you!
Bertolt Brecht
Whenever there are great virtues, it's a sure sign something's wrong.
Bertolt Brecht
Their peace and their war Are like wind and storm. War grows from their peace.
Bertolt Brecht
First the grub, then the morals.
Bertolt Brecht
Some party hack decreed that the people had lost the government's confidence and could only regain it with redoubled effort. If that is the case, would it not be simpler, If the government simply dissolved the people And elected another?
Bertolt Brecht
Life is short and so is money.
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
Erst kommt das Fressen, dann kommt die Moral.
Bertolt Brecht
Little changes are the enemies of great changes.
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
Sometimes it's more important to be human, than to have good taste.
Bertolt Brecht
Because things are the way they are, things will not stay the way they are.
Bertolt Brecht
