More quotes by 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
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
People who understand everything get no stories.
Bertolt Brecht
It was never decreed that a god mustn't pay hotel bills.
Bertolt Brecht
When the house of a great one collapses Many little ones are slain.
Bertolt Brecht
For once you must try not to shirk the facts: mankind is kept alive by bestial acts.
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
Even hatred of vileness Distorts a mans features.
Bertolt Brecht
I don't know what a man is. Only that every man has his price.
Bertolt Brecht
It's never too late for those whose time has come.
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
Poverty makes you wise but it's a curse.
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
Things take indeed a wondrous turn When learned men do stoop to learn.
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
He who speaks of enemies , himself is the enemy.
Bertolt Brecht
Grub first, then ethics.
Bertolt Brecht
Never believe on faith, see for yourself! What you yourself don't learn you don't know.
Bertolt Brecht
A good soldier has his heart and soul in it. When he receives an order, he gets a hard on, and when he drives his lance through his enemy's guts, he comes.
Bertolt Brecht
When crimes begin to pile up they become invisible. When sufferings become unendurable the cries are no longer heard. The cries, too, fall like rain in summer.
Bertolt Brecht
