More quotes by 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
Poverty makes you wise but it's a curse.
Bertolt Brecht
Great sport begins at a point where it has ceased to be healthy.
Bertolt Brecht
It is easier to rob by setting up a bank than by holding up a bank clerk.
Bertolt Brecht
Fearful is the seductive power of goodness.
Bertolt Brecht
When the house of a great one collapses Many little ones are slain.
Bertolt Brecht
When the leaders speak of peace, the common folk know war is coming.
Bertolt Brecht
People who understand everything get no stories.
Bertolt Brecht
Would it not be simpler If the Government dissolved the people and elected another?
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
You can make a fresh start with your final breath.
Bertolt Brecht
Little changes are the enemies of great changes.
Bertolt Brecht
Bank robbery is an initiative of amateurs. True professionals establish a bank.
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
I don't know what a man is. Only that every man has his price.
Bertolt Brecht
It was never decreed that a god mustn't pay hotel bills.
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
People remain what they are even if their faces fall apart.
Bertolt Brecht
...it is simplicity that is difficult to make.
Bertolt Brecht
