Bertolt Brecht
People who fight may lose. People who do not fight have already lost.
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
War is like love, it always finds a way.
Bertolt Brecht
People who understand everything get no stories.
Bertolt Brecht
Because things are the way they are, things will not stay the way they are.
Bertolt Brecht
