Quote by Lord (George Gordon) Byron
I know that two and two make four -- and should be glad to prove it too if I could -- though I must say if by any sort of process I could convert 2 and 2 into five it would give me much greater pleasure.
Summary
This quote is a satirical remark made by George Bernard Shaw. It suggests that while the speaker acknowledges the undeniable truth of 2 and 2 making 4, they express a wishful desire to defy logic and find joy in a fantastical scenario where 2 and 2 equals 5. Shaw's intention is to highlight the allure and excitement of defying established truths, questioning the significance of unquestioned facts, and challenging conventional thinking.
