The more innocent they are, the more they deserve to be shot.
Bertolt Brecht
Let nothing be called natural In an age of bloody confusion, Ordered disorder, planned caprice, And dehumanized humanity, lest all things Be held unalterable!
Bertolt Brecht
There are a few things that'll move people to pity, a few, but the trouble is, when they've been used several times, they no longer work.
Bertolt Brecht
The alienation effect in German epic theater is achieved not only through the actors, but also through music (chorus and song) andsets (transparencies, film strips, etc.). Its main purpose is to place the staged events in their historical context.
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
What rapture, oh, it is to know A good thing when you see it And having seen a good thing, oh, What rapture 'tis to flee it.
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
Who does Not Know the Truth, is simply a Fool... Yet who Knows the Truth and Calls it a Lie, is a Criminal.
Bertolt Brecht
Reality changes in order to represent it, modes of representation must change.
Bertolt Brecht
For art to be 'unpolitical' means only to ally itself with the 'ruling' group.
Bertolt Brecht
Bank robbery is an initiative of amateurs. True professionals establish a bank.
Bertolt Brecht
War is like love, it always finds a way.
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
Temptation to behave is terrible.
Bertolt Brecht
