To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches,
increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
~ Akhenaton
Irish dramatist, poet, author and one of the most iconic figures from
late Victorian society. For his sexuality he suffered the indignity and shame of imprisonment.
For a long time his name was synonymous with scandal and intrigue.
However with changing social attitudes he is remembered with great affection for his biting social criticism, wit and linguistic skills.
(1854-1900)
