关于萧伯纳的名言

你和我各有一个苹果,如果我们交换苹果的话,我们还是只有一个苹果。但当你和我各有一个想法,我们交换想法的话,我们就都有两个想法了。(If you have an apple and I have an apple, and we exchange apples, we both still only have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea, and we exchange ideas, we each now have two ideas. )

明白事理的人使自己适应世界;不明事理的人想使世界适应自己。所以,所有进步都要靠不明事理的人。(The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. )

所谓爱国心,是指你既生为这个国家的国民,对于这个国家,当比对其他一切的国家信仰得高贵优越。

所有伟大的真理开始于对上帝的亵渎。(All great truths begin as blasphemies.)

金钱的匮乏是所有罪恶的根源。(Lack of money is the root of all evil.)

所有伟大的艺术和文学都是宣传。(All great art and literature is propaganda.)

自由意味着责任,正因为如此,多数人都惧怕自由。(Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.)

爱国主义是一种有害的、精神错乱的白痴形式。(Patriotism is a pernicious, psychopathic form of idiocy.)

人往往将现况归咎于环境因素,但我不相信环境因素这回事。那些出类拔萃的人会去找些他们要的环境因素,如果找不到,他们会去创造他们要的环境因素。(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 the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.)

贫穷是我们社会的最大的罪恶,也是我们社会最可怕的罪行;而我们超越一切的首要责任,就是做到不贫穷。

我不相信造化弄人,在这个世界上出类拔萃的人都是运筹帷幄,主动找寻自己想要的环境。要是遍寻不获,他们就创造一个。
