More quotes by Oscar Wilde
Sometimes it takes courage to give into temptation.
Oscar Wilde
Every American bride is taken there [Niagara Falls], and the sight of the stupendous waterfall must be one of the earliest, if not the keenest, disappointments in American married life.
Oscar Wilde
The last person who ever crossed me is dead under my bed!!!
Oscar Wilde
Men are such cowards. They outrage every law in the world and are afraid of the world's tongue.
Oscar Wilde
We are the zanies of sorrow. We are clowns whose hearts are broken.
Oscar Wilde
Plain women are always jealous of their husbands. Beautiful women never are. They are always so occupied with being jealous of other women's husbands.
Oscar Wilde
To live in this world is a rare thing most people just exist.
Oscar Wilde
In married life three is company and two none.
Oscar Wilde
I summed up all systems in a phrase, and all existence in an epigram.
Oscar Wilde
Genius learns from nature, its own nature. Talent learns from art.
Oscar Wilde
I expect I shall have to die beyond my means.
Oscar Wilde
The Ideal Man should talk to us as if we were goddesses, and treat us as if we were children. He should refuse all our serious requests, and gratify every one of our whims. He should encourage us to have caprices, and forbid us to have missions. He should always say much more than he means, and always mean much more than he says.
Oscar Wilde
The Americans are identical to the British in all respects except, of course, language.
Oscar Wilde
One should either be a work of art, or wear a work of art.
Oscar Wilde
I never saw so many well-dressed, well-fed, business-looking Bohemians in my life.
Oscar Wilde
Love is fed by the imagination, by which we become wiser than we know, better than we feel, nobler than we are: by which we can see life as a whole, by which and by which alone we can understand others in their real and their ideal relation. Only what is fine, and finely conceived can feed love. But anything will feed hate.
Oscar Wilde
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
Oscar Wilde
I beg your pardon I didn't recognise you - I've changed a lot.
Oscar Wilde
At every single moment of one's life one is what one is going to be no less than what one has been.
Oscar Wilde
The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly - that is what each of us is here for.
Oscar Wilde
