More quotes by Bertolt Brecht
Erst kommt das Fressen, dann kommt die Moral.
Bertolt Brecht
What's breaking into a bank compared with founding a bank?
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
I don't know what a man is. Only that every man has his price.
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
The more innocent they are, the more they deserve to be shot.
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
Poverty makes you wise but it's a curse.
Bertolt Brecht
From the start it has been the theatre's business to entertain people ... it needs no other passport than fun.
Bertolt Brecht
Sometimes it's more important to be human, than to have good taste.
Bertolt Brecht
...it is simplicity that is difficult to make.
Bertolt Brecht
Though the rich of this earth find no difficulty in creating misery, they can't bear to see it.
Bertolt Brecht
When the house of a great one collapses Many little ones are slain.
Bertolt Brecht
If you join the rat race — you're in the race of rats.
Bertolt Brecht
Whenever there are great virtues, it's a sure sign something's wrong.
Bertolt Brecht
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
I don't trust him. We're friends.
Bertolt Brecht
Who fights may lose, but who does not fight has lost already.
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
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.
