Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
Every woman is wrong until she cries.
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
For one moment our lives met, our souls touched.
Oscar Wilde
Life is not governed by will or intention. Life is a question of nerves, and fibres, and slowly built-up cells in which thought hides itself and passion has its dreams.
Oscar Wilde
