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
If you eliminate smoking and gambling, you will be amazed to find that almost all an Englishman's pleasures can be, and mostly are, shared by his dog.
George Bernard Shaw
People get nothing out of books but what they bring to them.
George Bernard Shaw
If all the economists were laid end to end, they'd never reach a conclusion.
George Bernard Shaw
Though the Life Force supplies us with its own purpose, it has no other brains to work with than those it has painfully and imperfectly evolved in our heads.
George Bernard Shaw
You don't get tired of muffins, but you don't find inspiration in them.
George Bernard Shaw
My opportunities were still there, nay, they multiplied tenfold but the strength and youth to cope with them began to fail, and to need eking out with the shifty cunning of experience.
George Bernard Shaw
