Excerpt from George Bernard Shaw: A Critical Study
Birds of paradox is unsound. Paradox is truth disguised as untruth and the disguise must be some thing subtler than exaggeration and more frivolous than honest error. But most of what is regarded as paradox in Shaw's personal expressions is either a, strategical exaggeration of what he believes to be a! Fact or a sincere conviction which is so unusual as to seem insincere.
