More wisdom from the famed dramatist and literary critic --

"The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it."

  1. Here's another tidbit about the author of Pygmalion (a favorite play of mine):

    This story is attributed to George Bernard Shaw: As a child Shaw was watching his father shave one day and asked him why he did it. Shaw senior stopped, stared at his son, then threw his razor out the window, saying, "Why the hell do I?" Thereafter he grew a beard, an approach famously adopted by G.B.
