More quotes by George Bernard Shaw
We should have had socialism already, but for the socialists, am quite willing to drop the name if dropping it will help me to get the thing.
George Bernard Shaw
Men trifle with their business and their politics but never trifle with their games. It brings truth home to them. They cannot pretend they have won when they have lost nor that they had a magnificent drive when they foozled it. The Englishman is at his best on the links and at his worst in the Cabinet.
George Bernard Shaw
You have a choice of trusting the natural stability of gold, or the honesty and intelligence of members of government.
George Bernard Shaw
Self-sacrifice enables us to sacrifice other people without blushing.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
We are the living graves of murdered beasts, slaughtered to satisfy our appetites. How can we hope in this world to attain the peace we say we are so anxious for?
George Bernard Shaw
Freedom, my good girl, means being able to count on how other people will behave.
George Bernard Shaw
My only policy is to profess evil and do good.
George Bernard Shaw
An Englishman thinks he is moral when he is only uncomfortable.
George Bernard Shaw
The only sensible person is my tailor. He measures me anew each time he sees me.
George Bernard Shaw
I aint such a mug as to put up my children to all I know myself.
George Bernard Shaw
Hell is not all paved with bad intentions.
George Bernard Shaw
I believe in Michelangelo, Velasquez, and Rembrandt in the might of design, the mystery of color, the redemption of all things by Beauty everlasting, and the message of Art that has made these hands blessed. Amen. Amen.
George Bernard Shaw
Besides, do any of us understand what we are doing? If we did, would we ever do it?
George Bernard Shaw
