Oscar Wilde
Memory... is the diary that we all carry about with us.
Oscar Wilde
The unread is always better than the unreadable.

Oscar Wilde
If art is to have a special train, the critic must keep some seats reserved on it.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
This suspense is terrible. I hope it will last.
Oscar Wilde
Do you really keep a diary? I'd give anything to look at it. May I? Oh, no. You see, it is simply a very young girl's record of her own thoughts and impressions, and consequently meant for publication. When it appears in volume form I hope you will order a copy.
Oscar Wilde
Knowledge would be fatal. It is the uncertainty that charms one. A mist makes things wonderful.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
The soul is a terrible reality. It can be bought and sold and bartered away.
Oscar Wilde
We spend our days, each one of us, in looking for the secret of life. Well, the secret of life is in Art.
Oscar Wilde
Youth! There is nothing like youth. The middle-aged are mortgaged to Life. The old are in Life's lumber
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
Men of thoughts should have nothing to do with action.
Oscar Wilde
In England, an inventor is regarded almost as a crazy man, and in too many instances invention ends in disappointment and poverty. In America, an inventor is honoured, help is forthcoming, and the exercise of ingenuity, the application of science to the work of man, is there the shortest road to wealth.
Oscar Wilde
You are young. No hungry generations tread you down. The past does not mock you with the ruins of a beauty the secret of whose creation you have lost
Oscar Wilde
