George Bernard Shaw
Violence is the repartee of the illiterate.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
There is only one universal passion fear.
George Bernard Shaw
Love is a simple thing and a deep thing: it is an act of life and not an illusion. Art is an illusion.
George Bernard Shaw
A man ought to be able to be fond of his wife without making a fool of himself about her.
George Bernard Shaw
Political necessities sometime turn out to be political mistakes.
George Bernard Shaw
Rich men without convictions are more dangerous in modern society than poor women without chastity.
George Bernard Shaw
