George Bernard Shaw

When it comes to getting a move on you are all of the same opinion: stop it, flog it, hang it, dynamite it, stamp it out.
George Bernard Shaw
Woman's happiness begins with her first love and ends about then
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
The real Brahms is nothing more than a sentimental voluptuary. rather tiresomely addicted to dressing himself up as Handel or Beethoven and making a prolonged and intolerable noise.
George Bernard Shaw
You don't get tired of muffins, but you don't find inspiration in them.
George Bernard Shaw
What is both surprising and delightful is that the spectators are allowed, and even expected, to join in the vocal part of the game...There is no reason why the field should not try to put the batsman off his stroke at the critical moment by neatly timed disparagements of his wife's fidelity and his mother's respectability.
George Bernard Shaw
The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want and if they can't find them, make them.
George Bernard Shaw
The mathematician is fascinated with the marvelous beauty of the forms he constructs, and in their beauty he finds everlasting truth.
George Bernard Shaw
Forgive him, for he believes that the customs of his tribe are the laws of nature!
George Bernard Shaw
