More quotes by Oscar Wilde
In fact, I am never wrong.
Oscar Wilde
People seldom tell the truths that are worth telling. We ought to choose our truths as carefully as we choose our lies and to select our virtues with as much thought as we bestow upon the selection of our enemies.
Oscar Wilde
I live in terror of not being misunderstood.
Oscar Wilde
There are only two kinds of women, the plain and the coloured.
Oscar Wilde
It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.
Oscar Wilde
It was not intended as a compliment. It was a confession. Now that I have made it, something seems to have gone out of me. Perhaps one should never put one's worship into words.
Oscar Wilde
Be yourself everyone else is taken.
Oscar Wilde
The one charm about the past is that it is the past. But women never know when the curtain has fallen.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
We live in an age that reads too much to be wise, and that thinks too much to be beautiful.
Oscar Wilde
Life is not governed by will or intention. Life is a question of nerves, and fibres, and slowly built-up cells in which thought hides itself and passion has its dreams.
Oscar Wilde
You have never been poor, and never known what ambition is.
Oscar Wilde
Only the unimaginative can fail to find a reason for drinking Champagne
Oscar Wilde
It is a much cleverer thing to talk nonsense than to listen to it.
Oscar Wilde
I am not at all cynical, I have merely got experience, which, however, is very much the same thing.
Oscar Wilde
One does not see anything until one sees its beauty.
Oscar Wilde
It is only the unimaginative who ever invents. The true artist is known by the use he makes of what he annexes.
Oscar Wilde
Please do not shoot the pianist. He is doing his best.
Oscar Wilde
