Here are a few picks from the very well know one and only "George Bernard Shaw"
- Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who ever looks at it when it has been in the house three days?
- Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
- Beware of the man who does not return your blow: he neither forgives you nor allows you to forgive yourself.
- Choose silence of all virtues, for by it you hear other men's imperfections, and conceal your own.
- Clever and attractive women do not want to vote; they are willing to let men govern as long as they govern men.
- Dancing is a perpendicular expression of a horizontal desire.
- First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity.
- He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches
- A fashion is nothing but an induced epidemic
- A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.
- A gentleman is one who puts more into the world than he takes out
- A happy family is but an earlier heaven.
- A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.
- A man never tells you anything until you contradict him
- A perpetual holiday is a good working definition of hell
- A veteran journalist has never had time to think twice before he writes
- Alcohol is the anesthesia by which we endure the operation of life.
- All great truths begin as blasphemies
- Americans adore me and will go on adoring me until I say something nice about them.
- An asylum for the sane would be empty in America
