Actually, it's attributed to both, now I check. Then Shaw has:

(To a woman who wrote to him that she wanted to have children with him "think of the child with your brains and my beauty"😉

"But what if he were to have your brains and my beauty?"

I love Pygmalion. Haven't seen the play though, just the film.

I prefer The Mary Whitehouse Experience sketch:

Lady Asquith: "Mr Shaw, you and I should make love - with my looks and your brains we'd have great children."
Shaw: "Aha, but what if it had my looks and your brains?"

At which point Shaw retired to the garden to exclaim "I've just blown out a definite sh*g! What a stupid f***ing w***er!"
