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.
We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without
Simplicity is a matter of taste
The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows
The present is theirs, the future, for which I really worked, is mine
Great moments are born from great opportunity
Love is not affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person's ultimate good as far as it can be obtained
