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.
The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn
Four things were useless wealth without Expenditure in the way of Allah; Knowledge without practice; Piety for the sake of show prompted by worldliness Long life with no stock of good deeds
We should feel sorrow, but not sink under its oppression
Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth
Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names
Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody’s watching, and doing as you say you would do
