THOSE WHO CANNOT CHANGE THEIR MINDS CANNOT CHANGE ANYTHING” – 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, and polemicist whose influence on Western
theatre, culture, and politics extended from the 1880s to his death and
beyond. He wrote more than sixty plays, including major works such as
Man and Superman (1902), Pygmalion (1912), and Saint Joan (1923). With a
range incorporating both contemporary satire and historical allegory,
Shaw became the leading dramatist of his generation, and in 1925 was
awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. (from Wikipedia)
