Oliver Goldsmith
When any one of our relations was found to be a person of a very bad character, a troublesome guest, or one we desired to get rid of, upon his leaving my house I ever took care to lend him a riding-coat, or a pair of boots, or sometimes a horse of small value, and I always had the satisfaction of finding he never came back to return them.

Chicago Mayor Richard Daley
No man is an Ireland.

Oliver Goldsmith
Let schoolmasters puzzle their brain,
With grammar, and nonsense, and learning.
Good liquor, I stoutly maintain,
Gives genius a better discerning.

Danny McGoorty

Actors are unimportant.
Notes: on actors

George Bernard Shaw
Americans adore me and will go on adoring me until I say something nice about them.

Austin O'Malley
