Oscar Wilde
Image

Oscar Wilde
Image
Ideals are dangerous things. Realities are better. They wound, but they're better.
Oscar Wilde
Image
I don't know how to talk. Oh! talk to every woman as if you loved her, and to every man as if he bored you, and at the end of your first season you will have the reputation of possessing the most perfect social tact.
Oscar Wilde

Questions are never indiscreet, answers sometimes are.
Oscar Wilde
Image
If they know nothing of victory, they are at least spared the knowledge of defeat.
Oscar Wilde
