A drama critic is a man who leaves no turn unstoned. — George Bernard Shaw. Irish playwright, critic, and polemicist (1856–1950) Movies
People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
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.
I am afraid we must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.
