George Bernard Shaw
Most people probably are aware of Bernard Shaw for his writings, but I have recently found another side of him. Bernard Shaw was a big advocate for genocide, not by race as with Hitler but by classification. In other words if you were not a 'help' to society and pulling your own weight then you should literally be killed. Bernard Shaw even appealed to scientists of his day to come up with a chemical that could kill people swiftly without cruelty so their existence could cease if they were not 'contributing' to society as he saw it.
The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one.
-- George Bernard Shaw
"We learn from experience that men never learn anything from experience."
-- George Bernard Shaw

The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity.
