George Bernard Shaw(1856 – 1950) An Irish playwright, critic, political activist and a co-founder of the London School of Economics. He is the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize for Literature and an Oscar. A gentleman is one who puts more into the world than he takes out. A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. A little learning is a dangerous thing, but we must take that risk because a little is as much as our biggest heads can hold. A man never tells you anything until you contradict him. All great truths begin as blasphemies. As long as I have a want, I have a reason for living. Satisfaction is death. Assassination is the extreme form of censorship; and it seems hard to justify an incitement to it on anti-censorial principles. Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world. Consistency is the enemy of enterprise, just as symmetry is the enemy of art. Do not do unto others as you expect they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same. |
