George Bernard Shaw
Brains are not everything.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
All roads end at the grave, which is the gate to nothingness.
George Bernard Shaw
When you find something funny search it for hidden truth.
George Bernard Shaw
I am the most spontaneous speaker in the world because every word, every gesture, and every retort has been carefully rehearsed.
George Bernard Shaw
An interesting play cannot in the nature of things mean anything but a play in which problems of conduct and character of personalimportance to the audience are raised and suggestively discussed.
George Bernard Shaw
When God created man and woman, he did not take a patent. That's why any imbecile has been able to do so ever since.
George Bernard Shaw
