  1. A quotation from Shaw

    HIGGINS: Would the world ever have been made if its maker had been afraid of making trouble? Making life means making trouble. There’s only one way of escaping trouble; and that’s killing things. Cowards, you notice, are always shrieking to have troublesome people killed.

    George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish playwright and critic
    Pygmalion, Act 5 (1913)

  6. A quotation from George Bernard Shaw

    The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure for it is occupation, because occupation means pre-occupation; and the pre-occupied person is neither happy nor unhappy, but simply alive and active, which is pleasanter than any happiness until you are tired of it.

    George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish playwright and critic
    Treatise on Parents and Children, “Children’s Happiness” (1914)

  12. A quotation from George Bernard Shaw

    FANNY: I don’t mind this play shocking my father morally. It’s good for him to be shocked morally. It’s all that the young can do for the old, to shock them and keep them up to date.

    George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish playwright and critic
    Fanny’s First Play, “Induction” (1911)

    Luke Shaw mist komende zaterdag mogelijk het eerste duel van Engeland met Servië op het EK. "Ik moet voorzichtig zijn. Want als ik nu weer iets voel aan mijn hamstring, dan is het over", zei de linksback op een persconferentie. "Ik moet nu niet weer te snel gaan spelen."

  15. #FPL #GW1

    Going against #Salah / #Trent. 0.5 itb.

    Planned on leaving enough in the bank to upgrade Rash to Salah in #GW2 but got excited by the #Foden leak. Also had #Stones but sold him for #Shaw due to the leak. Not overly keen on him but he'll mitigate #Onana a bit.
