We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars
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 let yesterday take up too much of today
Chance favors the prepared mind
Broadly speaking short words are best and the old words when short, are best of all
Beware of speaking too much, for it increases mistakes and engenders boredom
To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart
We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all
