More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
Erst kommt das Fressen, dann kommt die Moral.
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
Only bad generals need heroes.
Bertolt Brecht
The right to happiness is fundamental men live so little time and die alone.
Bertolt Brecht
For the task assigned them Men aren't smart enough or sly Any rogue can blind them With a clever lie.
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
When the leaders speak of peace, the common folk know war is coming.
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
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
Great sport begins at a point where it has ceased to be healthy.
Bertolt Brecht
Mixing one's wines may be a mistake, but old and new wisdom mix admirably.
Bertolt Brecht
The human race tends to remember the abuses to which it has been subjected rather than the endearments. What's left of kisses? Wounds, however, leave scars.
Bertolt Brecht
What kind of times are they, when A talk about trees is almost a crime Because it implies silence about so many horrors?
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
When the leaders speak of peace The common folk know That war is coming When the leaders curse war The mobilization order is already written out. Every day, to earn my daily bread I go to the market where lies are bought Hopefully I take up my place among the sellers.
Bertolt Brecht
Eats first, morals after.
Bertolt Brecht
It isn't important to come out on top, what matters is to be the one who comes out alive.
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 man who laughs has simply not yet had the terrible news.
Bertolt Brecht
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
