• Ningún templo hecho con las manos puede compararse con Yosemite. Cada roca de sus muros parece resplandecer de vida... Horrible en su majestuosidad severa e inamovible, qué suavemente están adornadas estas rocas, y qué fina y tranquilizadora es la compañía que hacen: Sus pies entre hermosas arboledas y praderas, sus frentes en el cielo, mil flores apoyadas confiadamente contra sus pies, bañadas por riadas de agua, riadas de luz.

• Cuando Mayo, con mechones trenzados de cowslip,
  camina por la tierra vestida de verde.
  Y quema en la hierba del prado el flox
  Su antorcha de fuego púrpura:
  Y cuando el puntual mayo llega
  con la hierba de los prados en su frente,
  Sabemos lo que una vez dio a nuestras vidas,
  y no puede darnos ahora.

• Viendo claramente en sí mismo y siempre capaz de esquivar los extremos de cualquier posición, incluida la suya propia, Shaw asumió desde el principio el doble papel de profeta y tábano. A sus contemporáneos les parecía frívolo y contradictorio actuar a la vez como superhombre y socialista, escéptico y creyente, legalista y hereje, intelectual y orador de la plebe. Pero sintiendo el deber de enseñar y de reflejar a la humanidad, Shaw no se aceptó a sí mismo como un ser contradictorio.
