Additional quotes by Bernard Shaw

Oh, it’s a fine life, the life of the gutter. It’s real: it’s warm: it’s violent: you can feel it through the thickest skin: you can taste it and smell it without any training or any work. Not like Science and Literature and Classical Music and Philosophy and Art.

La imaginación es el principio de la creación. Imaginamos lo que deseamos, queremos lo que imaginamos y, por fin, creamos lo que queremos.

When we want to read of the deeds that are done for love, wither do we turn? To the murder column; and there we are rarely disappointed.
