Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future
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.
God gives sleep to the bad, in order that the good may be undisturbed
Never whisper in company
To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance
To define is to limit
