More quotes by George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
If associations to control burglary and murder were tolerated we should take it for granted that the members should all be burglers and murderers.
George Bernard Shaw
Every doctor will allow a colleague to decimate a whole countryside sooner than violate the bond of professional etiquette by giving him away.
George Bernard Shaw
We learn from history that we learn nothing from history.
George Bernard Shaw
A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.
George Bernard Shaw
Nothing is ever done in this world until men are prepared to kill one another if it is not done.
George Bernard Shaw
If you do things merely because you think some other fool expects you to do them, and he expects you to do them because he thinks you expect him to expect you to do them, it will end in everybody doing what nobody wants to do, which is in my opinion a silly state of things.
George Bernard Shaw
In order to fully realize how bad a popular play can be, it is necessary to see it twice.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
Why should we take advice on sex from the pope? If he knows anything about it, he shouldn't!
George Bernard Shaw
Our lives are shaped not as much by our experiences as by our expectations.
George Bernard Shaw
The golden rule is that there are no golden rules.
George Bernard Shaw
A man of great common sense and good taste - meaning thereby a man without originality or moral courage.
George Bernard Shaw
Men are always thinking that they are going to do something grandly wicked to their enemies but when it comes to the point, really bad men are just as rare as really good ones.
George Bernard Shaw
I object to publishers: the one service they have done me is to teach me to do without them. They combine commercial rascality with artistic touchiness and pettishness, without being either good business men or fine judges of literature.
George Bernard Shaw
Most people go to their grave with their music inside them.
George Bernard Shaw
General consultant to mankind.
George Bernard Shaw
We all go about longing for love: it is the first need of our natures, the loudest cry of our hearts.
George Bernard Shaw
In a battle all you need to make you fight is a little hot blood and the knowledge that it's more dangerous to lose than to win.
George Bernard Shaw
