For, try as we may, we cannot get behind the appearence of things to reality. And the terrible reason may be that there is no reality in the things apart from their appearences.
Oscar Wilde
Image
There are only two kinds of women, the plain and the coloured.
Oscar Wilde
Image
The only one you need in your life is that person who shows you he needs you in his.
Oscar Wilde
Image
The nicest feeling in the world is to do a good deed anonymously-and have somebody find out.
Oscar Wilde
Image
At six o'clock we cleaned our cells, At seven all was still, But the sough and swing of a mighty wing The prison seemed to fill, For the Lord of Death with icy breath Had entered in to kill.
Oscar Wilde
Image

Ones real life is often the life that one does not lead.

Sympathy with joy intensifies the sum of sympathy in the world, sympathy with pain does not really diminish the amount of pain.
Oscar Wilde
Image
I am but too conscious of the fact that we are born in an age when only the dull are treated seriously, and I live in terror of not being misunderstood. Don't degrade me into the position of giving you useful information. Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
Image
When we are happy, we are always good, but when we are good, we are not always happy.
Oscar Wilde
Image
It is not wise to find symbols in everything that one sees. It makes life too full of terrors.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Even before I met you I was far from indifferent to you.
Oscar Wilde
Image
The body sins once, and has done with its sin, for action is a mode of purification. Nothing remains then but the recollection of a pleasure, or the luxury of a regret.
Oscar Wilde
Image
If a woman wants to hold a man she has merely to appeal to what is worst in him.
Oscar Wilde
Image
A bishop keeps on saying at the age of eighty what he was told to say at the age of eighteen.
Oscar Wilde
Image
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.
