论毒舌，我墙都不扶，只服萧伯纳

说起萧伯纳 George Bernard Shaw，不少人都知道他是一位获得过诺贝尔文学奖的杰出剧作家，其实，他也是世界著名的幽默和讽刺大师。

萧伯纳毕生创造幽默，写下了《圣女贞德》(Saint Joan)、《伤心之家》(Heartbreak House)、《华伦夫人的职业》(Mrs. Warren's Profession) 等50余部作品。

在去世前，他把最后的幽默留给了自己，他的墓志铭这样写道:

I knew if I stayed around long enough, something like this would happen.

我早就知道无论我能活多久，这种事情迟早会发生的。

他还制造了一大波扎心的"毒鸡汤"语录，放到当代，绝对是刷爆朋友圈的网红段子，今天，就一起来领教一下他的"毒舌"功力吧！
