Oscar Wilde
Circumstances should never alter principles!
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. We all have clouds above us but some see their silver linings. We all face difficulties but some of us are grateful that they aren't worse.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
Man can believe the impossible, but man can never believe the improbable.
Oscar Wilde
Memory is the diary that chronicles things that never have happened and couldn't possibly have happened.
