Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination
Irish poet and playwright. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s.
People who know little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little.
There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it
The high-minded man must care more for the truth than for what people think.
