Oscar Wilde
If you don't get everything you want, think of the things you don't get that you don't want.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
The worst thing to do with success, is to boast about it.
Oscar Wilde
If a woman wants to hold a man she has merely to appeal to what is worst in him.
Oscar Wilde
ever since I met you I have admired you more than any girl...I have ever met since...I met you.
Oscar Wilde
The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful.
Oscar Wilde
The only proper intoxication is conversation.
Oscar Wilde
