"If you would stick to the concrete,..." - Quote by George Bernard Shaw

“If there is anything I hate in a woman, it's want of character.”

“I have never thought much of the courage of a lion tamer. Inside the cage he is at least safe from other men. There is not much harm in a lion. He has no ideals, no religion, no politics, no chivalry, no gentility; in short, no reason for destroying anything that he does not want to eat”

“Nothing is worth doing unless the consequences may be serious.”

“I wonder that you will still be talking. Nobody marks you.”

“When you start off by telling those who disagree with you that they are not merely in error but in sin, how much of a dialogue do you expect?”

“We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out.”

“Reasonable men are the best dictionaries of conversation.”

“We acknowledge that we should not talk of our wives; but we seem not to know that we should talk still less of ourselves.”

“The uses of travel are occasional, and short; but the best fruit it finds, when it finds it, is conversation; and this is a main function of life.”
