George Bernard Shaw
If you do not write for publication, there is little point in writing at all.
George Bernard Shaw
I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like the state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind.
George Bernard Shaw
The British soldier can stand up to anything except the British War Office.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
Englishmen hate Liberty and Equality too much to understand them. But every Englishman loves a pedigree.
George Bernard Shaw
There is nothing on earth more exquisite than a bonny book, with well-placed columns of rich black writing in beautiful borders, and illuminated pictures cunningly inset. But nowadays, instead of looking at books, people read them. A book might as well be one of those orders for bacon and bran.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
What you are to do without me I cannot imagine.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
The test of good education is seeing how it behaves in a fight.
George Bernard Shaw
The educated man is a greater nuisance than the uneducated one.
George Bernard Shaw
We know now that the soul is the body, and the body the soul. They tell us they are different because they want to persuade us that we can keep our souls if we let them make slaves of our bodies.
George Bernard Shaw
