Brecht on Theatre Quotes

“When something seems ‘the most obvious thing in the world’ it means that any attempt to understand the world has been given up.”
― Bertolt Brecht, Brecht on Theatre

“Knowledge is just a commodity. It is acquired in order to be resold. All those who have grown out of going to school have to do their learning virtually in secret, for anyone who admits the he has still something to learn devalues himself as a man whose knowledge is inadequate.”
― Bertolt Brecht, Brecht on Theatre
