More quotes by Oscar Wilde
Concordantly, while your first question may be the most pertinent, you may or may not realize it is also the most irrelevant.
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
A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal.
Oscar Wilde
The world has been made by fools that wise men may live in it.
Oscar Wilde
Whenever cannibals are on the brink of starvation, Heaven, in its infinite mercy, sends them a fat missionary.
Oscar Wilde
It is awfully hard work doing nothing.
Oscar Wilde
Marriage is the one subject on which all women agree and all men disagree.
Oscar Wilde
Most people live for love and admiration. But it is by love and admiration that we should live.
Oscar Wilde
Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account.
Oscar Wilde
The youth of the present day are quite monstrous. They have absolutely no respect for dyed hair.
Oscar Wilde
The commonest thing is delightful if one only hides it.
Oscar Wilde
It is so easy to convince others it is so difficult to convince oneself.
Oscar Wilde
It is in the brain, and the brain only, that the great sins of the world take place also. You, Mr. Gray, you yourself, with yourrose-red youth and your rose-white boyhood, you have had passions that have made you afraid, thoughts that have filled you with terror, day-dreams and sleeping dreams whose mere memory might stain your cheek with shame.
Oscar Wilde
Whatever, in fact, is modern in our life we owe to the Greeks. Whatever is an anachronism is due to mediaevalism.
Oscar Wilde
The fatal errors of life are not due to man's being unreasonable: an unreasonable moment may be one's finest moment. They are due to man's being logical.
Oscar Wilde
Work is the curse of the drinking class. I can resist everything except temptation. Moderation is a fatal thing - nothing succeeds like excess. We are all of us in the gutter. But some of us are looking at the stars.
Oscar Wilde
Just as the orator marks his good things by a dramatic pause, or by raising and lowering his voice, or by gesture, so the writer marks his epigrams with italics, setting the little gem, so to speak, like a jeweler.
Oscar Wilde
There is no doubt that genius lasts longer than beauty.
Oscar Wilde
History is merely gossip
Oscar Wilde
There can be nothing more frequent than an occasional drink.
Oscar Wilde
