George Bernard Shaw Quotes
The moment we face it frankly we are driven to the conclusion that the community has a right to put a price on the right to live in it ...

Is it any wonder that some of us are driven to prescribe the lethal chamber as the solution for the hard cases which are at present made the excuse for dragging all the other cases down to their level, and the only solution that will create a sense of full social responsibility in modern populations?
