More quotes by George Bernard Shaw
Social questions are too sectional, too topical, too temporal to move a man to the mighty effort which is needed to produce greatpoetry. Prison reform may nerve Charles Reade to produce an effective and businesslike prose melodrama but it could never produce Hamlet, Faust, or Peer Gynt.
George Bernard Shaw
Youth, which is forgiven everything, forgives itself nothing: age, which forgives itself everything, is forgiven nothing.
George Bernard Shaw
At present there is not a single credible established religion in the world.
George Bernard Shaw
I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like the state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind.
George Bernard Shaw
Get out of my way for I won't stop for you.
George Bernard Shaw
The perfect love affair is one which is conducted entirely by post.
George Bernard Shaw
Besides, do any of us understand what we are doing? If we did, would we ever do it?
George Bernard Shaw
If I bind the future I bind my will. If I bind my will I strangle creation.
George Bernard Shaw
It is assumed that the woman must wait, motionless, until she is wooed. That is how the spider waits for the fly.
George Bernard Shaw
Nietzche . . . he was a confirmed Life Force worshipper. It was he who raked up the Superman, who is as old as Prometheus and the 20th century will run after this newest of the old crazes when it gets tired of the world, the flesh, and your humble servant.
George Bernard Shaw
Men have to do some awfully mean things to keep up their respectability.
George Bernard Shaw
The natural term of the affection of the human animal for its offspring is six years.
George Bernard Shaw
Martyrdom is the only path to immortality that requires no talent whatsoever.
George Bernard Shaw
I'm not a teacher: only a fellow traveler of whom you asked the way. I pointed ahead - ahead of myself as well as you.
George Bernard Shaw
The road to ignorance is paved with good editors.
George Bernard Shaw
Let no one suppose that the words doctor and patient can disguise from the parties the fact that they are employer and employee.
George Bernard Shaw
Any belief worth having must survive doubt
George Bernard Shaw
When we know what God is, we shall be gods ourselves.
George Bernard Shaw
It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace.
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
