The heart was made to be broken
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.
Don’t talk about your riches in front of poor
The root of suffering is attachment
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance
It is a good rule after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between
Resist much, obey little
There is nothing more tragic than to find an individual bogged down in the length of life, devoid of breadth
