George Bernard Shaw
Spend all you have before you die, and do not outlive yourself.
George Bernard Shaw
Words are only postage stamps delivering the object for you to unwrap
George Bernard Shaw
As long as I have a want, I have a reason for living. Satisfaction is death.
George Bernard Shaw
I find it easy to forgive the man who invented a devilish instrument like dynamite, but how can one ever forgive the diabolical mind that invented the Nobel Prize in Literature?
George Bernard Shaw
Home life is no more natural to us than a cage is natural to a cockatoo.
George Bernard Shaw
Must then a Christ perish in torment in every age to save those that have no imagination.
George Bernard Shaw
