George Bernard Shaw
How can you dare teach a man to read until you've taught him everything else first?
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
The conversion of a savage to Christianity is the conversion of Christianity to savagery.
George Bernard Shaw
I am afraid we must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.
George Bernard Shaw
A nap, my friend, is a brief period of sleep which overtakes superannuated persons when they endeavor to entertain unwelcome visitors or to listen to scientific lectures.
George Bernard Shaw
We must all share in the evils of the world or move to another planet.
George Bernard Shaw
When it comes to the point, really bad men are just as rare as really good ones.
George Bernard Shaw
Let a short Act of Parliament be passed, placing all street musicians outside the protection of the law, so that any citizen may assail them with stones, sticks, knives, pistols or bombs without incurring any penalties.
George Bernard Shaw
Rebecca [West] can handle a pen as brilliantly as ever I could and much more savagely.
George Bernard Shaw
