Gearge Bernard Shaw, at his best


"Breakages Limited, the biggest industrial corporation in the country".

"When a stupid man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always declares that it is his duty".

"I never expect a soldier to think".

"All professions are conspiracies against the laity".

"When our relatives are at home, we have to think of all their good points, or else, it would be impossible to endure them. But, when they are away we console ourselves, for their absence, by dwelling on their vices".

"What really flatters a man is that you think him worth flattering".

"There are only two qualities in the world: efficiency and inefficiency; and only two sorts of people: the efficient and the inefficient".

"He is always breaking the law. He broke the law when he was born: his parents were not married".

"A lifetime of happiness! No man alive could bear it: it would be hell on earth".

"The more things a man is ashamed of, the more respectable he is".
