Image
I can believe anything provided it is quite incredible.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Just be your self. Everybody else is already taken.
Oscar Wilde
Image
It is perfectly possible to get what you think you want and be miserable. It's possible too, to never get it but deeply enjoy the process of trying. In this world, there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.
Oscar Wilde
Image
The State is to make what is useful. The individual is to make what is beautiful.
Oscar Wilde
Image
If there was less sympathy in the world, there would be less trouble in the world.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Things are in their essence what we choose to make them. A thing is, according to the mode in which one looks at it.
Oscar Wilde
Image
An engagement should come on a young girl as a surprise, pleasant or unpleasant as the case may be.
Oscar Wilde
Image
If we men married the women we deserved, we should have a very bad time of it.
Oscar Wilde
Image
The secret to life is to enjoy the pleasure of being terribly, terribly deceived.
Oscar Wilde
Image
I would not a bit mind sleeping in the cool grass in summer, and when winter came on sheltering myself by the warm close-thatched rick, or under the penthouse of a great barn, provided I had love in my heart.
Oscar Wilde
Image
I live in terror of not being misunderstood.
Oscar Wilde
Image
I analyzed you, though you did not adore me.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Many of the great achievements of the world were accomplished by tired and discouraged men who kept on working.
Oscar Wilde
Image
In examinations the foolish ask questions that the wise cannot answer.
Oscar Wilde
Image
As for modern journalism, it is not my business to defend it. It justifies its own existence by the great Darwinian principle of the survival of the vulgarest.
Oscar Wilde
Image
God, bless me with luxury. Necessities I can do without.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Through our sunless lanes creeps Poverty with her hungry eyes, and Sin with his sodden face follows close behind her. Misery wakes us in the morning and Shame sits with us at night.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Foxhunting... the unspeakable pursuing the inedible.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Sin is a thing that writes itself across a man's face. It cannot be concealed. People talk sometimes of secret vices, there are no such things. If a wretched man has a vice, it shows itself in the lines of his mouth, the droop of his eyelids, the moulding of his hands even.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Algy, you always adopt a strictly immoral attitude towards life. You are not quite old enough to do that.
Oscar Wilde
