George Bernard Shaw
The joy in life is to be used for a purpose. I want to be used up when I die.

George Bernard Shaw
If we have come to think that the nursery and the kitchen are the natural sphere of a woman, we have done so exactly as English children come to think that a cage is the natural sphere of a parrot: because they have never seen one anywhere else.
George Bernard Shaw
I believe in the discipline of silence, and could talk for hours about it.
George Bernard Shaw
Money is a most important thing in the world.
George Bernard Shaw
Why not give Christianity a trial?
George Bernard Shaw
When God created man and woman, he did not take a patent. That's why any imbecile has been able to do so ever since.
George Bernard Shaw
No man fully capable of his own language ever masters another.
George Bernard Shaw
Gardening is the only unquestionably useful job.
George Bernard Shaw
Keep away from books and from men who get their ideas from books, and your own books will always be fresh.
George Bernard Shaw
