Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it
ceases to be serious when people laugh.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

My way of joking is to tell the truth. It is the funniest joke
in the world.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

The open mind never acts: whe...

The open mind never acts: when we have done our utmost to arrive
at a reasonable conclusion, we still. . . must close our minds
for the moment with a snap, and act dogmatically on our
conclusions.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he
will.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

A true artist will let his wife starve, his children go barefoot,
his mother drudge for his living at seventy, sooner than work at
anything but his art.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

Of all human struggles there is none so treacherous and
remorseless as the struggle between the artist man and the mother
woman.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing
without work.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

What God hath joined together ...

What God hath joined together no man shall put asunder; God will
take care of that.

Those who talk most about the blessings of marriage and the
constancy of its vows are the very people who declare that if the
chain were broken and the prisoners were left free to choose, the
whole social fabric would fly asunder. You can't have the
argument both ways. If the prisoner is happy, why lock him in?
If he is not, why pretend that he is?

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

Marriage is popular because it...

Marriage is popular because it combines the maximum of temptation
with the maximum of opportunity.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

My advice to you is get married: if you find a good wife you'll
be happy; if not, you'll become a philosopher.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

The one point on which all wom...

The one point on which all women are in furious secret rebellion
against the existing law is the saddling of the right to a child
with the obligation to become the servant of a man.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

The philosopher is Nature's pilot. And there you have our
difference: to be in hell is to drift: to be in heaven is to
steer.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

Every drunken skipper trusts to Providence. But one of the ways
of Providence with drunken skippers is to run them on the rocks.

Must then a Christ perish in torment in every age to save those
that have no imagination?

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

Go anywhere in England where there are natural, wholesome,
contented, and really nice English people; and what do you always
find? That the stables are the real centre of the household.

If all the economists were laid end to end, they'd never reach a conclusion.

Money is indeed the most important thing in the world; and all sound and successful personal and national morality should have this fact for its basis.

George Bernard Shaw 1763 quotes

Money is the most important th...

Money is the most important thing in the world. It represents health, strength, honor, generosity, and beauty as conspicuously as the want of it represents illness, weakness, disgrace, meanness, and ugliness.
