More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
Poverty makes you wise but it's a curse.
Bertolt Brecht
It's never too late for those whose time has come.
Bertolt Brecht
Art and science work in quite different ways: agreed. But, bad as it may sound, I have to admit that I cannot get along as an artist without the use of one or two sciences. ... In my view, the great and complicated things that go on in the world cannot be adequately recognized by people who do not use every possible aid to understanding.
Bertolt Brecht
One forgets too easily the difference between a man and his image, and that there is none between the sound of his voice on the screen and in real life.
Bertolt Brecht
The defeats and victories of the fellows at the top aren't always defeats and victories for the fellows at the bottom.
Bertolt Brecht
Suppose they gave a war, and nobody came? Why then, the war would come to you!
Bertolt Brecht
Fearful is the seductive power of goodness.
Bertolt Brecht
One must live well to know what living is.
Bertolt Brecht
Grub first, then ethics.
Bertolt Brecht
...it is simplicity that is difficult to make.
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
There are men who struggle for a day and they are good. There are men who struggle for a year and they are better. There are men who struggle many years, and they are better still. But there are those who struggle all their lives: These are the indispensable ones.
Bertolt Brecht
A person is really dead only when nobody thinks of him anymore.
Bertolt Brecht
What's a joy to the one is a nightmare to the other.
Bertolt Brecht
What a miserable thing life is: you're in clover only the clover isn't good enough.
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
I don't like where I'm going and I don't like where I've been. Why am I in a hurry?
Bertolt Brecht
Spring is noticed, if at all By people sitting in railway trains.
Bertolt Brecht
Righteous people have no sense of humor.
Bertolt Brecht
It was never decreed that a god mustn't pay hotel bills.
Bertolt Brecht
