Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.

Oscar Wilde
If people were meant to be nude, they would have been born this way.
Oscar Wilde
I must say... that I ruined myself: and that nobody, great or small, can be ruined except by his own hand.
Oscar Wilde
An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all.
Oscar Wilde
Being natural is simply a pose, and the most irritating pose I know.
Oscar Wilde
I am Irish by race but the English have condemned me to talk the language of Shakespeare.
Oscar Wilde
Biography lends to death a new terror.
Oscar Wilde
The artist is the creator of beautiful things. To reveal art and conceal the artist is art's aim.
Oscar Wilde
The girl never really lived, and so she has never really died.
Oscar Wilde
