Bertolt Brecht
“As crimes pile up, they become invisible.”
Bertolt Brecht

Bertolt Brecht
“Art is not a mirror to hold up to reality, rather a hammer to shape it.”
Bertholt Brecht

Bertolt Brecht
“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events. He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics. The imbecile doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”
Bertolt Brecht

“Intelligence is not to make no mistakes, but quickly to see how to make them good.”

“Mixing one's wines may be a mistake, but old and new wisdom mix admirably.

The Singer, in The Caucasian Chalk Circle, prologue (1944).”
