More quotes by Oscar Wilde
The basis of action is lack of imagination. It is the last resource of those who know not how to dream.
Oscar Wilde
The best art is about individualism, free self-expression and realising a unique, imaginative perspective- A true artist takes no notice whatever of the public. The public are to him non-existent.
Oscar Wilde
God, bless me with luxury. Necessities I can do without.
Oscar Wilde
The supreme object of life is to live. Few people live. It is true life only to realize one's own perfection, to make one's every dream a reality.
Oscar Wilde
Personality must be accepted for what it is. You mustn't mind that a poet is a drunk, rather that drunks are not always poets.
Oscar Wilde
I have the kiss of Walt Whitman still on my lips
Oscar Wilde
The body sins once, and has done with its sin, for action is a mode of purification. Nothing remains then but the recollection of a pleasure, or the luxury of a regret.
Oscar Wilde
Oh, I don’t care about Jack. I don’t care for anybody in the whole world but you. I love you, Cecily. You will marry me, won’t you? You silly boy! Of course. Why, we have been engaged for the last three months. For the last three months?
Oscar Wilde
I should have remembered that when one is going to lead an entirely new life, one requires regular and wholesome meals.
Oscar Wilde
I put my talent in my work, I save my Genius for my life.
Oscar Wilde
To be popular I must be mediocre.
Oscar Wilde
I don't like compliments, and I don't see why a man should think he is pleasing a woman enormously when he says to her a whole heap of things that he doesn't mean.
Oscar Wilde
Believe me, no civilized man ever regrets a pleasure, and no uncivilized man ever knows what a pleasure is.
Oscar Wilde
I wanted to eat of the fruit of all the trees in the garden of the world… And so, indeed, I went out, and so I lived. My only mistake was that I confined myself so exclusively to the trees of what seemed to me the sun-lit side of the garden, and shunned the other side for its shadow and its gloom.
Oscar Wilde
The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.
Oscar Wilde
Who am I to tamper with a masterpiece?
Oscar Wilde
He hadn’t a single redeeming vice.
Oscar Wilde
Life is never fair, and perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not.
Oscar Wilde
The curves of your lips rewrite history.
Oscar Wilde
The sign of a Philistine age is the cry of immorality against art.
Oscar Wilde
