Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
Youth! There is nothing like youth. The middle-aged are mortgaged to Life. The old are in Life's lumber
Oscar Wilde
Questions are never indiscreet, answers sometimes are.
Oscar Wilde
The world is changed because you are made of ivory and gold. The curves of your lips rewrite history.
Oscar Wilde
A flower blossoms for its own joy.
Oscar Wilde
I wrote when I did not know life now that I do know the meaning of life, I have no more to write. Life cannot be written life can only be lived.
Oscar Wilde
LADY STUTFIELD I adore silent men. MRS ALLONBY Oh, Ernest isn't silent. He talks the whole time. But he has got no conversation. What he talks about I don't know. I haven't listened to him for years.
Oscar Wilde
