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.
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life
The human being obtains some of his misfortunes by failing to attend to his own comfort.
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars
Virtue pardons the wicked, as the sandal-tree perfumes the axe which strikes it
The rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened
I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it
