‘The only man I know who
 behaves sensibly is my tailor. He
   takes my measurements anew
each time he sees me. The rest go
  on with their old measurements
       and expect me to fit them.’
                         George Bernard Shaw
‘I can resist
everything but
   temptation.’
            Oscar Wilde
‘I HAVE THE SIMPLEST
TASTES. I AM ALWAYS
SATISFIED WITH THE
BEST.’
Oscar Wilde
‘There is no such
       thing as bad
   publicity except
your own obituary.’
               Brendan Behan
‘There are no
strangers here,
only friends that
have not yet met.’
William Butler Yeats
‘I often quote
 myself. It adds
     spice to my
conversations.’
          George Bernard Shaw
Our greatest glory
is not in never
falling, but in rising
every time we fall.’
Oliver Goldsmith
‘SOME MEN SEE THINGS AS
  THEY ARE AND ASK WHY.
   OTHERS DREAM THINGS
   THAT NEVER WERE AND
          ASK WHY NOT.’
                George Bernard Shaw
‘My heroes are the ones
who survived doing it wrong,
who made mistakes, but
recovered from them.’
Bono
‘Life is no brief candle to me. It
  is a sort of splendid torch which I
 have got a hold of for the moment,
      and I want to make it burn as
brightly as possible before handing it
             on to future generations.’
                             George Bernard Shaw
