More quotes by Oscar Wilde
The only thing I can't resist is temptation.
Oscar Wilde
Truth in art is the unity of a thing with itself: the outward rendered expressive of the inward: the soul made incarnate: the body instinct with spirit. For this reason there is no truth comparable to sorrow.
Oscar Wilde
She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses but in all my garden there is no red rose.
Oscar Wilde
The value of an idea has nothing whatever to do with the sincerity of the man who expresses it.
Oscar Wilde
Just as the philanthropist is the nuisance of the ethical sphere, so the nuisance of the intellectual sphere is the man who is so occupied in trying to educate others, that he has never had any time to educate himself.
Oscar Wilde
Circumstances should never alter principles!
Oscar Wilde
Charity creates a multitude of sins.
Oscar Wilde
I have found that all ugly things are made by those who strive to make something beautiful, and that all beautiful things are made by those who strive to make something useful.
Oscar Wilde
The only possible form of exercise is to talk, not to walk.
Oscar Wilde
They have been eating muffins. That looks like repentance
Oscar Wilde
I must say to myself that I ruined myself, and that nobody great or small can be ruined except by his own hand. I am quite ready to say so. ... Terrible as was what the world did to me, what I did to myself was far more terrible still.
Oscar Wilde
Every little action of the common day makes or unmakes character.
Oscar Wilde
Sin is a thing that writes itself across a man's face. It cannot be concealed.
Oscar Wilde
God and other artists are always a little obscure.
Oscar Wilde
We have been able to have fine poetry in England because the public do not read it, and consequently do not influence it. The public like to insult poets because they are individual, but once they have insulted them, they leave them alone.
Oscar Wilde
Full frontal nudity is reserved for Adam and Eve!
Oscar Wilde
People fashion their God after their own understanding. They make their God first and worship him afterwards.
Oscar Wilde
The studio was filled with the rich odour of roses, and when the light summer wind stirred amidst the trees of the garden, there came through the open door the heavy scent of the lilac, or the more delicate perfume of the pink-flowering thorn.
Oscar Wilde
The wild Bee reels from bough to bough With his furry coat and his gauzy wing, Now in a lily cup, and now Setting a jacinth bell a-swing, In his wandering.
Oscar Wilde
Nowadays, saying what you really think can be a serious error since one risks being misunderstood.
Oscar Wilde
