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.
Chance favors the prepared mind
We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without
No man is good enough to govern another man without the other’s consent
I honor religion except when it gets into shedding blood
There is no friend as loyal as a book
You have to do your own growing no matter how tall your grandfather was
