More quotes by George Bernard Shaw
It is doubtless wise, when a reform is introduced, to try to persuade the British public that it is not a reform at all but appearances must be kept up to some extent at least.
George Bernard Shaw
I dislike feeling at home when I am abroad.
George Bernard Shaw
Man can climb to the highest summits, but he cannot dwell there long.
George Bernard Shaw
All this struggling and striving to make the world better is a great mistake. Not that it's wrong to try to improve the world if you know how but simply because struggling and striving are the worst possible ways to go about doing anything!
George Bernard Shaw
Fear is choosing the safe course
George Bernard Shaw
The most sincere form of love is love for food
George Bernard Shaw
If I refuse to allow my leg to be amputated, its mortification and my death may prove that I was wrong but if I let the leg go, nobody can ever prove that it would not have mortified had I been obstinate. Operation is therefore the safe side for the surgeon as well as the lucrative side.
George Bernard Shaw
All government is cruel for nothing is so cruel as impunity.
George Bernard Shaw
When a bishop at the first shot abandons the worship of Christ and rallies his flock round the altar of Mars, he may be acting patriotically... but that does not justify him in pretending...that Christ is, in effect, Mars.
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
Those who can’t change their minds can’t change anything.
George Bernard Shaw
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world the unreasonable one persists to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
George Bernard Shaw
An asylum for the sane would be empty in America.
George Bernard Shaw
Imprisonment is as irrevocable as death.
George Bernard Shaw
You are all fundamentalists with a top dressing of science. That is why you are the stupidest of conservatives and reactionists in politics and the most bigoted of obstructionists in science itself. 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
A critic is one who leaves no turn unstoned.
George Bernard Shaw
Would the world ever have been made if its maker had been afraid of making trouble?Making life means making trouble. There’s only one way of escaping trouble and that’s killing things.
George Bernard Shaw
I was convinced that Ceylon is the cradle of the human race because everybody there looks an original. All other nations are obviously mass produced.
George Bernard Shaw
The trouble with the media is that it seems unable to distinguish between the end of the world and a bicycle accident.
George Bernard Shaw
Give a man health and a course to steer, and he'll never stop to trouble about whether he's happy or not.
George Bernard Shaw
