  3. As long as I have a want, I have a reason for living. Satisfaction is death.
  4. Assassination is the extreme form of censorship.
  5. That proves it's not by Shaw, because all Shaw's characters are himself: mere puppets stuck up to spout Shaw.
  6. Political necessities sometimes turn out to be political mistakes.
  7. The word morality, if we met it in the Bible, would surprise us as much as the word telephone or motor car.
  8. Scratch an Englishman and find a Protestant.
