Bertolt Brecht
A person is really dead only when nobody thinks of him anymore.
Bertolt Brecht
First the grub, then the morals.
Bertolt Brecht
There must always be some who are brighter and some who are stupider, the latter make up for it by being better workers.
Bertolt Brecht

Bertolt Brecht
When the house of a great one collapses Many little ones are slain.
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 who fight may lose. People who do not fight have already lost.
Bertolt Brecht
Little changes are the enemies of great changes.
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
Reality changes in order to represent it, modes of representation must change.
Bertolt Brecht
A theater without beer is just a museum
Bertolt Brecht
When the leaders speak of peace, the common folk know war is coming.
Bertolt Brecht
You don't need to pray to God any more when there are storms in the sky, but you do have to be insured.
Bertolt Brecht
I don't know what a man is. Only that every man has his price.
Bertolt Brecht
Pleasures First look from morning's window The rediscovered book Fascinated faces Snow, the change of the seasons The newspaper The dog Dialectics Showering, swimming Old music Comfortable shoes Comprehension New music Writing, planting Traveling Singing Being friendly
