Oscar Wilde
A man who marries without knowing Bunbury has a very tedious time of it.
Oscar Wilde
Tell the cook of this restaurant with my compliments that these are the very worst sandwiches in the whole world, and that, when I ask for a watercress sandwich, I do not mean a loaf with a field in the middle of it.
Oscar Wilde
Every thing to be true must become a religion.
Oscar Wilde
Indeed, as any one who has ever worked among the poor knows only too well, the brotherhood of man is no mere poet's dream, it is a most depressing and humiliating reality.
