"People are always blaming their circumstances for..." - Quote by George Bernard Shaw

“The sound body is the product of the sound mind.”

“There is nothing on earth intended for innocent people so horrible as a school.”

“Reviewing has one advantage over suicide: in suicide you take it out on yourself; in reviewing you take it out on other people.”

“Even if a civil society were to be dissolved by the consent of all its members (e.g., if a people inhabiting an island decided to separate and disperse throughout the world), the last murderer remaining in prison would first have to be executed, so that each has done to him what his deeds deserve and blood guilt does not cling to the people for not having insisted upon this punishment; for otherwise the people can be regarded as collaborators in his public violation of justice.”

“It is not possible for one to teach others who cannot teach his own family.”

“If I do my full duty, the rest will take care of itself.”

“A particular train of thought persisted in, be it good or bad, cannot fail to produce its results on the character and circumstances. A man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances.”

“We make allowance for necessity.”

“Circumstance does not make the man. Circumstance reveals man to himself.”
