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.

And although nothing much can be seen through the mist, there is somehow the blissful feeling that one is looking in the right direction.
