More quotes by Oscar Wilde
You have never been poor, and never known what ambition is.
Oscar Wilde
What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Oscar Wilde
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
Oscar Wilde
The value of an idea has nothing whatsoever to do with the sincerity of the man who expresses it. Indeed, the probabilities are that the more insincere the man is, the more purely intellectual will the idea be, as in that case it will not be coloured by either his wants, his desires, or his prejudices.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
And if life be, as it surely is, a problem to me, I am no less a problem to life.

Oscar Wilde
It is much more easy to have sympathy with suffering than it is to have sympathy with thought.
Oscar Wilde
Beauty is the only thing that time cannot harm. Philosophies fall away like sand, and creeds follow one another like the withered leaves of Autumn but what is beautiful is a joy for all seasons and a possession for all eternity.
Oscar Wilde
In married life three is company and two none.
Oscar Wilde
To live in this world is a rare thing most people just exist.
Oscar Wilde
The Number our envious Persons, confirmation our capability.
Oscar Wilde
Spontaneity is a meticulously prepared art
Oscar Wilde
The best work in literature is always done by those who do not depend on it for their daily bread and the highest form of literature, Poetry, brings no wealth to the singer.
Oscar Wilde
It is a much cleverer thing to talk nonsense than to listen to it.
Oscar Wilde
The world is made by the singer for the dreamer.
Oscar Wilde
There is a luxury in self-reproach. When we blame ourselves we feel no one else has a right to blame us.
Oscar Wilde
