"Freedom for Whom", as translated in Brecht on Brecht : An Improvisation (1967) by George Tabori, p. 18
Context: Firebugs dragging their gasoline bottles
Are approaching the Academy of Arts, with a grin.
And so, instead of embracing them, Let us demand the freedom of the elbow
To knock the bottles out of their filthy hands.
Even the most blockheaded bureaucrat,
Provided he loves peace,
Is a greater lover of the arts
Than any so-called art-lover
Who loves the arts of war.
“Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. ”
“It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”
Manuscript Found in Accra (2012), Love has always passed me by
“Tell me if the lovers are losers… tell me if any get more than the lovers.”
"Cool Tombs" (1918)
“The value and quality of any love is determined solely by the lover himself.”
