Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
For one moment our lives met, our souls touched.
Oscar Wilde
I must remember that a good friend is a new world.
Oscar Wilde
Women, as some witty Frenchman once put it, inspire us with the desire to do masterpieces and always prevent us from carrying them out.

Time is jealous of you, and wars against your lilies and your roses.
Oscar Wilde
Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement.
Oscar Wilde
