George Bernard Shaw
Happy is the man who can make a living by his hobby
George Bernard Shaw
No man ever believes that the Bible means what it says: he is always convinced that it says what he means.
George Bernard Shaw
Most of the money given by rich people in charity is made up of conscience money, ransom, political bribery, and bids for titles.... One buys moral credit by signing a cheque, which is easier than turning a prayer wheel.
George Bernard Shaw
It's so hard to know what to do when one wishes earnestly to do right.
George Bernard Shaw
