  • George Bernard Shaw once returned a manuscript with uncut pages and - when challenged by the original author - replied: "You don't need to eat a whole egg to know it's rotten."

    When Shaw was still a music critic, he was dining with a friend in a restaurant that provided for entertainment an orchestra that was, at best, mediocre.

    The band leader, recognising Shaw, wrote him a note asking him what he would like the orchestra to play next.

    Shaw replied: "Dominoes."

    Same guy who said the only person who could "patiently" listen to Brahms' requiem was the corpse itself. :ROFLMAO:

    It’s true. I performed the Brahms Req, it goes on and on.

    At a dinner party, Shaw sat next to a young man who proved to be a bore of historic proportions.

    After suffering through an interminable monologue, Shaw observed that between the two of them, they knew everything in the world.

    "How is that?" asked the young man.

    "Well," said Shaw, "you seem to know everything except that you're a bore. And I know that!"
