A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.

Reality can destroy the dream; why shouldn't the dream destroy reality?

Taking something from one man and making it worse is plagiarism.

The right of property holds good in all society; but in the West, ethics invade the personal life in a manner unknown to the East, so much so that the Oriental stands agape at our folly, knowing well that every man brings different instincts and ideas into the world with him.

From George A. Moore

To what better purpose can a man's energy be devoted, and his talents, than the resuscitation of his country's language?

From George A. Moore

The right I claim is that of every human being to speak what he believes to be the truth to whomever he may meet on his way.

From George A. Moore

Remorse: beholding heaven and feeling hell.

From George A. Moore

I do not believe in a universal religion any more than I believe in a universal language. My feeling is that people have to make their own religion as they have to make their arts and their parishes, and that they must find their own salvation; the salvation mongers are of not much avail.

From George A. Moore

'The Dublin Magazine' has been edited with good taste, and it is very agreeable reading, but to speak quite candidly, I do not believe in the future of any literary journal any more than I believe in the future of the Trinity.

From George A. Moore

Dublin dwindles so beautifully; there is no harsh separation between it and the country. It fades away, whereas London seems to devour the country; an army of buildings come and take away a beautiful park, and you never seem to get quite out of sight of a row of houses.
