Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much
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.
Patience ensures victory
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time
A graceful refusal is better than a lengthy promise.
We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once
The painter has the Universe in his mind and hands
You must keep your judgement clear of the mists of vain conceit
