„Soha nem másztam semmiféle szamárlétrán. Sikereimet pusztán a gravitációnak köszönhetem.”
Csitt! Egy fehér lovat hallok közeledni!" c. könyvből (Biográf Kiadó, 1996)
George Bernard Shaw: Idézetek angolul
“The only time my education was interrupted was when I was in school.”
Widely attributed to Shaw from the 1970s onward, but not known to exist in his published works. It is in keeping with some of his sardonic statements about the purposes and effectiveness of schools. First known attribution in print is in Neil Postman and Charles Weingartner's Teaching as a Subversive Activity (1971), "G. B. Shaw's line that the only time his education was interrupted was when he was in school captures the sense of this alienation."
