More quotes by Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
How does one cure the soul? Through the senses
Oscar Wilde
I usually say what I really think. A great mistake nowadays. It makes one so liable to be misunderstood.
Oscar Wilde
Would you be in any way offended if I said that you seem to me to be in every way the visible personification of absolute perfection?
Oscar Wilde
Every woman is a rebel, and usually in wild revolt against herself.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
I would not a bit mind sleeping in the cool grass in summer, and when winter came on sheltering myself by the warm close-thatched rick, or under the penthouse of a great barn, provided I had love in my heart.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
I am but too conscious of the fact that we are born in an age when only the dull are treated seriously, and I live in terror of not being misunderstood. Don't degrade me into the position of giving you useful information. Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.
Oscar Wilde
I am happy in my prison of passion
Oscar Wilde
A process which makes one rogue cleverer than another.
Oscar Wilde
I wonder that no criminal has ever pleaded the ugliness of your city as an excuse for his crimes.
Oscar Wilde
When a man is old enough to do wrong he should be old enough to do right also.
Oscar Wilde
