More quotes by Oscar Wilde
I like looking at geniuses and listening to beautiful people.
Oscar Wilde
An artist should create beautiful things, but should put nothing of his own life into them.
Oscar Wilde
When one is in town one amuses oneself. When one is in the country one amuses other people. It is excessively boring.
Oscar Wilde
Some things are more precious because they don't last long.
Oscar Wilde
If they know nothing of victory, they are at least spared the knowledge of defeat.
Oscar Wilde
But we never get back our youth… The pulse of joy that beats in us at twenty becomes sluggish. Our limbs fail, our senses rot. We degenerate into hideous puppets, haunted by the memory of the passions of which we were too much afraid, and the exquisite temptations that we had not the courage to yield to.
Oscar Wilde
My dear fellow, the truth isn’t quite the sort of thing one tells to a nice, sweet, refined girl. What extraordinary ideas you have about the way to behave to a woman!
Oscar Wilde
Rich bachelors should be heavily taxed. It is not fair that some men should be happier than others.
Oscar Wilde
To look at a thing is very different from seeing it.
Oscar Wilde
I knew nothing but shadows and I thought them to be real.
Oscar Wilde
Be happy, be happy you shall have your red rose. I will build it out of music by moonlight, and stain it with my own heart's-blood. All that I ask of you in return is that you will be a true lover, for Love is wiser than Philosophy, though she is wise, and mightier than Power, though he is mighty.
Oscar Wilde
I summed up all systems in a phrase, and all existence in an epigram.
Oscar Wilde
A grand passion is the privelege of people who have nothing to do.
Oscar Wilde
When one pays a visit it is for the purpose of wasting other people's time, not one's own.
Oscar Wilde
Genius learns from nature, its own nature. Talent learns from art.
Oscar Wilde
No work of art ever puts forward views. Views belong to people who are not artists.
Oscar Wilde
The fact is, that civilization requires slaves. Unless there are slaves to do the ugly, horrible, uninteresting work, culture and contemplation become almost impossible.
Oscar Wilde
Private information is practically the source of every large modern fortune.
Oscar Wilde
Irony is wasted on the stupid
Oscar Wilde
Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.
Oscar Wilde
