George Bernard Shaw
If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must Man be of learning from experience.
George Bernard Shaw
Captain Shotover: How much does your soul eat? Ellie: Oh, a lot. It eats music and pictures and books and mountains and lakes and beautiful things to wear and nice people to be with.
George Bernard Shaw
It is dangerous to be sincere unless you are also stupid.
George Bernard Shaw
My only policy is to profess evil and do good.
George Bernard Shaw
It is assumed that the woman must wait, motionless, until she is wooed. That is how the spider waits for the fly.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
If a woman rebels against high-heeled shoes, she should take care to do it in a very smart hat
George Bernard Shaw
From a very early age, I've had to interrupt my education to go to school.
George Bernard Shaw
Now that we have learned to fly the air like birds, swim under water like fish, we lack one thing - to learn to live on earth as human beings.
George Bernard Shaw
Anarchism is a game at which the police can beat you.
George Bernard Shaw
If parents would only realize how they bore their children.
George Bernard Shaw
Gardening is the only unquestionably useful job.
George Bernard Shaw

George Bernard Shaw
You don't get tired of muffins, but you don't find inspiration in them.
George Bernard Shaw
I am a Christian. That obliges me to be a Communist.
George Bernard Shaw
A critic recently described me, with deadly acuteness, as having 'a kindly dislike of my fellow-creatures.' Perhaps dread would have been nearer the mark than dislike for man is the only animal of which I am thoroughly and cravenly afraid.
George Bernard Shaw
You see things and you say, ‘Why?’ But I dream things that never were and I say, ‘Why not?
George Bernard Shaw
Hell is not all paved with bad intentions.
George Bernard Shaw
