George Bernard Shaw

Cruelty must be whitewashed by a moral excuse, and a pretense of reluctance.

Custom will reconcile people to any atrocity; and fashion will drive them to acquire any custom.

Never wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it.

It's all that the young can do for the old, to shock them and keep them up to date.

The best place to find God is in a garden. You can dig for him there.

The golden rule is that there is not golden rule.

The longer I live the more I see that I am never wrong about anything, and that all the pains that I have so humbly taken to verify my notions have only wasted my time.

Americans adore me and will go on adoring me until I say something nice about them.

Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.

Nothing is ever done in this world until men are prepared to kill one another is it is not done.
