    Extractions: Home About Us Shaw Biography Future Events ... Contact Us Shaw biography Early years George Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin in 1856 and worked as a clerk between 1871 and 1876. He moved to London aged twenty. His early years there, between 1876 and 1884, were filled with frustration and poverty. During this period, he depended on his mother's income as a music teacher and a pound a week sent by his father from Dublin (he said, later, “I did not throw myself into the struggle for life: I threw my mother into it”). Shaw spent his days in the British Museum reading room writing novels and reading, and his evenings attending lectures and debates by the middle class intelligentsia. He became a socialist and a skilful orator. He became a vegetarian in 1881 in the hope of curing his chronic migraine headaches. A driving force behind the Fabian Society, he threw himself into committee work, wrote socialist pamphlets, and spoke to crowds several times a week. Shaw began his journalism career as a book reviewer and art, music, and drama critic, always downgrading the artificialities and hypocrisies he found in those arts.

L i f e is a b o u t creating yourself." ~ George Bernard Shaw Irish playwright and novelist George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was born on this day in Dublin. Known for his keen intelligence and barbed wit, he influenced the culture of his time with his writing. Irish playwright and novelist George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was born on this day in Dublin and known for his barbed wit. "I often quote myself," he said. "It adds spice to my conversation." Self-taught because he disliked formal training, G.B.S. (he disliked his name "George," too) began as a London theatre critic, then wrote his first novel to further criticize the English stage. He explained his reason for action : "You don't learn to hold your own in the world by standing on guard, but by attacking and getting well-hammered yourself." His over 52 plays and pamphlets among them, Candida Pygmalion (1912), and Saint Joan (1923)showcase memorable characters and brilliant insights: "If you are going to tell people the truth , you'd better make them laugh . Otherwise they'll kill you." Famous for mixing philosophy and humor, G.B.S. wrote most of his own

    Extractions: Caesar and Cleopatra (1898) In Egypt the bearer of good tidings is sacrificed to the gods as a thank offering; but no god will accept the blood of the messenger of evil. When we have good tidings, we are careful to send them in the mouth of the cheapest slave we can find. Evil tidings are borne by young noblemen who desire to bring themselves to notice. Belzanor, Act I The Romans are at hand ... not even the descendants of the gods can resist them; for they have each man seven arms, each carrying seven spears. The blood in their veins is boiling quicksilver; and their wives become mothers in three hours, and are slain and eaten the next day. Belzanor, Act I Who shall stay the sword in the hand of a fool, if the high gods put it there? Ftatateeta, Act I In the little world yonder, Sphinx, my place is as high as yours in this great desert; only I wander, and you sit still; I conquer, and you endure; I work and wonder, you watch and wait; I look up and am dazzled, look down and am darkened, look round and am puzzled, whilst your eyes never turn from looking outout of the worldto the lost regionthe home from which we have strayed.

    Extractions: Great quotes to inspire, empower and motivate you to live the life of your dreams and become the person you've always wanted to be! M artyrdom is the only way a man can become famous without ability. I f you value a man's regard, strive with him. As to liking, you like your newspaper and despise it. L ife would be tolerable but for its amusements. G reat art is never produced for its own sake. It is too difficult to be worth the effort. B eauty is all very well at first sight; but whoever looks at it when it has been in the house three days? H ow can you dare teach a man to read until you've taught him everything else first? F ind enough clever things to say, and you're a Prime Minister; write them down and you're a Shakespeare. I enjoy convalescence. It is the part that makes the illness worth while. I never thought much of the courage of a lion tamer. Inside the cage he is at least safe from people. I believe in Michelangelo, Velasquez, and Rembrandt; in the might of design, the mystery of color, the redemption of all things by Beauty everlasting, and the message of Art that has made these hands blessed. Amen. Amen.

    Extractions: posted 21 Sep 07 at 05:57 pm In a short post yesterday about where writers do their business , I mentioned that Witold Rybczynski had written about the writing room of a famous author that was purposely set away from the rest of his house. I grabbed my copy of The Most Beautiful House in the World off the shelf just now and found that I'd turned down the page containing the relevant passage back when I read the book a few years ago. The author I was thinking of was George Bernard Shaw; here is Rybczynski's description of his writing room: But Shaw too was a builder, and the writing room that he erected in his garden was a Shavian combination of simplicity, convenience, and novelty. He called it "the Shelter," but it was really a shed, only eight feet square. It contained the essentials of the writer's trade a plank desk, an electric lamp, a wicker chair, a bookcase, and a wastepaper basket. Beside the desk was a shelf for his Remington portable like [Samuel] Clemens, Shaw was an early amateur of the typewriter. There was also a telephone (modified to refuse incoming calls), a thermometer, and an alarm clock (to remind him when it was time for lunch). Shaw's writing hut had one other curious feature: the entire building was mounted on a pipe so that it could be rotated to take advantage of the sun's warmth at different times of the day. But the tiny building was so loaded down with books and furniture that the feature was probably never used. Pictures and more on Shaw's writing hut at

His plays combine comedy with political, philosophical, and controversial aspects, aiming to make an impact on his audience's social conscience as well as their emotions. They include Arms and the Man The Devil's Disciple Man and Superman Pygmalion (1913), and St Joan (1923). He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1925. Shaw was born in Dublin, and went to London in 1876 to work as a critic. He became a brilliant debater. Shaw combined treatment of social issues with a comic technique that relied on brilliantly witty serio-comic dialogue and playfully ironic inversion of audience expectations about character and situation. As a result, he put himself in the front line of the intellectually serious and progressive English theatre, yet also became a successful popular playwright. Altogether Shaw wrote more than 50 plays and became renowned for his wit. His theories were further explained in the voluminous prefaces to the plays, and in books such as
