More quotes by Oscar Wilde
I am jealous of everything whose beauty does not die.
Oscar Wilde
Life is like a box of terrible analogies.
Oscar Wilde
but the bravest man among us is afraid of himself
Oscar Wilde
Just as the worst slave-owners were those who were kind to their slaves, and so prevented the horror of the system being realized by those who suffered from it, and understood by those who contemplated it, so, in the present state of things in England, the people who do most harm are the people who try to do most good.
Oscar Wilde
We teach people how to remember, we never teach them how to grow.
Oscar Wilde
Life is never fair, and perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not.
Oscar Wilde
Millionaire models are rare enough but model millionaires are rarer still!
Oscar Wilde
I really don't see anything romantic in proposing. It is very romantic to be in love. But there is nothing romantic about a definite proposal. Why, one may be accepted. One usually is, I believe. Then the excitement is all over. The very essence of romance is uncertainty. If ever I get married, I'll certainly try to forget the fact.
Oscar Wilde
For he who lives more lives than one more deaths than one must die.
Oscar Wilde
Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known.
Oscar Wilde
I live constantly in the fear of not being misunderstood.
Oscar Wilde
Work is the curse of the drinking class. I can resist everything except temptation. Moderation is a fatal thing - nothing succeeds like excess. We are all of us in the gutter. But some of us are looking at the stars.
Oscar Wilde
A beggar hates his benefactor as much as he hates himself for begging.
Oscar Wilde
Personally, I have a great admiration for stupidity.
Oscar Wilde
No man dies for what he knows to be true. Men die for what they want to be true, for what some terror in their hearts tells them is not true.
Oscar Wilde
What art seeks to disturb is monotony of type, slavery of custom, tyranny of habit, and the reduction of man to the level of a machine.
Oscar Wilde
Wickedness is a myth invented by good people to account for the curious attractiveness of others.
Oscar Wilde
There is nothing so difficult to marry as a large nose.
Oscar Wilde
What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise for which we are later, in the fullness of time and understanding, very grateful for!
Oscar Wilde
All love is true, but not all truth ... is love?
Oscar Wilde
