George Bernard Shaw Quotes
We all have--to put it as nicely as I can--our lower centres and our higher centres. Our lower centres act: they act with terriblepower that sometimes destroys us; but they don't talk....

For they speak truths that have never been spoken before--truths that the makers of our domestic institutions have tried to ignore.
