- Ethan Mordden is known for Reel Radicals: The Sixties Revolution in Film (2002), American Masters (1985) and Theater Talk (1996).
- Bertolt Brecht never stopped stealing, never stopped screaming, and never stopped stooging for the totalitarian crushing of the human spirit, as long as the crushing was performed by communists instead of Nazis.
- It is not merely Shaw's sexlessness that [his critics] dislike, but the man's utter lack of warmth, heart, compassion. Like many reformers who speak of the disadvantaged, Shaw has no more sympathy for them than for their oppressors. He doesn't want to rationalize the world's paradoxes; he wants to flourish his own. Shaw was a joking Jeremiah, a sexless romantic. Shaw was a professional grotesque - unpredictable, self-righteous and flamboyant. Shaw was George Bernard Shaw rolled into one.
