Ouida
Fame has only the span of the day, they say. But to live in the hearts of people-that is worth something.
Ouida
We do not want to think. We do not want to hear. We do not care about anything. Only give us a good dinner and plenty of money, and let us outshine our neighbors. There is the Nineteenth Century Gospel.
Ouida
Fame! it is the flower of a day, that dies when the next sun rises.
Ouida

Ouida
Sport inevitably creates deadness of feeling. No one could take pleasure in it who was sensitive to suffering and therefore its pursuit by women is much more to be regretted than its pursuit by men, because women pursue much more violently and recklessly what they pursue at all.
Ouida
Even of death Christianity has made a terror which was unknown to the gay calmness of the Pagan and the stoical repose of the Indian.
Ouida
There is a chord in every heart that has a sigh in it if touched aright.
Ouida
Great men have always had dogs.
Ouida
Friendship is such an elastic word. There never was an age when it stood for so many things in private, and was yet so absolutely non-existent in fact.
Ouida
Indifference is the invisible giant of the world.
Ouida
A little scandal is an excellent thing nobody is ever brighter or happier of tongue than when he is making mischief of his neighbors.
