You must all know half a dozen people at least who are no use in this world, who are more trouble than they are worth. Just put them there and say Sir, or Madam, now will you be kind enough to justify your existence? If you can’t justify your existence, if you’re not pulling your weight in the social boat, if you’re not producing as much as you consume or perhaps a little more, then, clearly, we cannot use the organizations of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive, because your life does not benefit us and it can’t be of very much use to yourself.

George Bernard Shaw, Fabian socialist.

Fabian Window, designed by Shaw and today hangs in the london school of economics.

I suggest taking a look at the large view for some interesting symbolism. For instance the Fabian Shield is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Do you know if that Shaw biography by Henderson leans in favor of or against Shaw?

I looked it up on Amazon but I don't see any reviews.
