Life Isnt About Finding Yourself Life

This quote is not Shaw's. Quote Investigator found no evidence connecting it to any of his plays, essays, or letters, and the attribution is classified as unsupported. The earliest credible match is from American journalist Sydney J. Harris, writing in 1969: "Young people searching for their 'real self' must learn that the real self is not something one finds as much as it is something one makes." Psychiatrist Thomas Szasz expressed the same idea in 1973. Shaw's name appears to have been attached to the saying only in the 1990s, without any source.
