More quotes by Oscar Wilde
The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.
Oscar Wilde
But what world says that [I'm wicked]? It can only be the next world. This world and I are on excellent terms.
Oscar Wilde
Looking good and dressing well is a necessity. Having a purpose in life is not.
Oscar Wilde
Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.
Oscar Wilde
The first duty in life is to be as artificial as possible. What the second duty is no one has as yet discovered.
Oscar Wilde
Every woman is a rebel, and usually in wild revolt against herself.
Oscar Wilde
The most terrible thing about it is not that it breaks one’s heart—hearts are made to be broken—but that it turns one’s heart to stone.
Oscar Wilde
Do not be afraid of the past. If people tell you that it is irrevocable, do not believe them. The past, the present and the future are but one moment in the sight of God, in whose sight we should try to live. Time and space, succession and extension, are merely accidental conditions of thought. The imagination can transcend them.
Oscar Wilde
If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.
Oscar Wilde
It is he who has broken the bond of marriage - not I. I only break its bondage.
Oscar Wilde
It's tragic how few people ever 'possess their souls' before they die. 'Nothing is more rare in any man', says Emerson, 'than an act of his own.' It is quite true. Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their life is a mimicry, their passions a quotation.
Oscar Wilde
M. Zola is determined to show that, if he has not got genius, he can at least be dull.
Oscar Wilde
Success is a science if you have the conditions, you get the result.
Oscar Wilde
There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.
Oscar Wilde
The world has grown suspicious of anything that looks like a happy married life.
Oscar Wilde
I hate people who are not serious about meals. It is so shallow of them.
Oscar Wilde
It is much more easy to have sympathy with suffering than it is to have sympathy with thought.
Oscar Wilde
Conversation about the weather is the last refuge of the unimaginative.
Oscar Wilde
I envy you going to Oxford: it is the most flower-like time of one's life. One sees the shadow of things in silver mirrors. Later on, one sees the Gorgon's head, and one suffers, because it does not turn one to stone.
Oscar Wilde
Though of all poses a moral pose is the most offensive, still to have a pose at all is something.
Oscar Wilde
