More quotes by George Bernard Shaw
Martyrdom is the only path to immortality that requires no talent whatsoever.
George Bernard Shaw
Everybody who does not live in a prostitute's bed and on a diet of cocaine snow is called an ascetic nowadays.
George Bernard Shaw
No diet will remove all the fat from your body because the brain is entirely fat. Without a brain, you might look good, but all you could do is run for public office.
George Bernard Shaw
Set me anything to do as a task, and it is inconceivable the desire I have to do something else.
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
Love is a gross exaggeration of the difference between one person and everybody else.
George Bernard Shaw
The roulette table pays nobody except him that keeps it. Nevertheless a passion for gaming is common, though a passion for keeping roulette tables is unknown.
George Bernard Shaw
If the lesser mind could measure the greater as a foot-rule can measure a pyramid, there would be finality in universal suffrage. As it is, the political problem remains unsolved.
George Bernard Shaw
Only fools repeat the same things over and over, expecting to obtain different results.
George Bernard Shaw
The public want actresses, because they think all actresses bad. They don't want music or poetry because they know that both are good. So actors and actresses thrive and poets and composers starve.
George Bernard Shaw
Every man deserves to be judged in the context of his times.
George Bernard Shaw
Kings are not born: they are made by artificial hallucination.
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
What right has any human being to talk of bringing up a child? You do not bring up a tree or a plant. It brings itself up. You have to give it a fair chance by tilling the soil.
George Bernard Shaw
You will think less of the art, when you know the artist
George Bernard Shaw
What Englishman will give his mind to politics as long as he can afford to keep a motor car?
George Bernard Shaw
Power is the faculty or capacity to act, the strength and potency to accomplish something.
George Bernard Shaw
Though the Life Force supplies us with its own purpose, it has no other brains to work with than those it has painfully and imperfectly evolved in our heads.
George Bernard Shaw
Great art is never produced for its own sake. It is too difficult to be worth the effort.
George Bernard Shaw
You see things and you say, ‘Why?’ But I dream things that never were and I say, ‘Why not?
George Bernard Shaw
