About
George Bernard Shaw
George Bernard Shaw (26 July 1856 – 2 November 1950), known at his insistence simply as Bernard Shaw, was an Irish playwright, critic, polemicist and political activist with a range incorporating both contemporary satire and historical allegory. He wrote more than sixty plays, including such works as Man and Superman (1902), Pygmalion (1913) and Saint Joan (1923). Shaw was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1925.
«Розумна людина пристосовується до світу, а нерозумна наполегливо намагається пристосувати світ до себе. Тому весь прогрес залежить від нерозумної людини». — Джордж Бернард Шоу, Людина і Супермен
