My recollection is that the quote comes from Churchill. Shaw was a socialist until his dying day.

One of the earliest users of the quote was James Madison but its origins go much further back. There’s lots of speculation about who said it first. It certainly wasn’t George Bernard Shaw, who was a staunch Fabian socialist.

Misattributed. That was Churchill, not Shaw.
