But from that summit there was a speedy relapse into our present savagery.
George Bernard Shaw
If you take too long in deciding what to do with your life, you'll find you've done it.
George Bernard Shaw
When the military man approaches, the world locks up its spoons and packs off its womankind.
George Bernard Shaw
It is more dangerous to be a great prophet or poet than to promote twenty companies for swindling simple folk out of their savings.
George Bernard Shaw
I really don't think I could consent to go to Heaven if I thought there were no animals there.
George Bernard Shaw
Hell is not all paved with bad intentions.
George Bernard Shaw
We are not taught to think decently on sex subjects, and consequently we have no language for them except indecent language.
George Bernard Shaw
