[famous_quotes] Oscar Wilde Quotes
Hi all,
I enjoy reading Oscar Wilde's writtings. He is one among my favourite authors.
Individuality sets him apart from the rest, that's what makes him a unique author.
Here are some from my collection :
"Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much."
--Oscar Wilde
"Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative."
--Oscar Wilde
"Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months."
--Oscar Wilde
"I am not young enough to know everything."
--Oscar Wilde
"Morality, like art, means a drawing a line someplace."
--Oscar Wilde
"The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on. It is never any use to oneself."
--Oscar Wilde
"The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible."
--Oscar Wilde
"It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious."
--Oscar Wilde
"Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes."
--Oscar Wilde
"What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing."
--Oscar Wilde
"The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius."
--Oscar Wilde
"A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal."
--Oscar Wilde
"I can believe anything, provided that it is quite incredible."
--Oscar Wilde
"The advantage of the emotions is that they lead us astray, and the advantage of science is that it is not emotional."
--Oscar Wilde
"Anybody can sympathise with the sufferings of a friend, but it requires a very fine nature to sympathise with a friend's success."
--Oscar Wilde
"There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about."
--Oscar Wilde
"In the world there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it."
--Oscar Wilde
