Oscar Wilde

All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril.
Oscar Wilde
Image
We who live in prison, and in whose lives there is no event but sorrow, have to measure time by throbs of pain, and the record of bitter moments.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Women represent the triumph of matter over mind, just as men represent the triumph of mind over morals.
Oscar Wilde

Love is a misunderstanding between two fools.
Oscar Wilde

His style is chaos illumined by flashes of lightning. As a writer he has mastered everything except language.
Oscar Wilde
Image
He rides in the row at ten o clock in the morning, goes to the Opera three times a week, changes his clothes at least five times a day, and dines out every night of the season. You don't call that leading an idle life, do you?
Oscar Wilde

Memory is the diary that chronicles things that never have happened and couldn't possibly have happened.
Oscar Wilde
