Bertolt Brecht
The more innocent they are, the more they deserve to be shot.
Bertolt Brecht
Eats first, morals after.
Bertolt Brecht
Some party hack decreed that the people had lost the government's confidence and could only regain it with redoubled effort. If that is the case, would it not be simpler, If the government simply dissolved the people And elected another?
Bertolt Brecht
Do not fear death so much but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
Reality changes in order to represent it, modes of representation must change.
