Every woman is a rebel.

The public have an insatiable curiosity to know everything, except what is worth knowing.

The worst of it is that I am perpetually being punished for nothing; this governor loves to punish, and he punishes by taking my books away from me. It's perfectly awful to let the mind grind itself away between the upper and nether millstones of regret and remorse without respite; with books my life would be livable -- any life.

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

For he who lives more lives than one more deaths than one must die.

It is a curious fact that people are never so trivial as when they take themselves seriously

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

It takes great deal of courage to see the world in all its tainted glory, and still to love it.

I hate vulgar realism in literature. The man who would call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one.

Life is not complex. We are complex. Life is simple, and the simple thing is the right thing.

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

I adore simple pleasures. They are the last refuge of the complex.

I like Wagner's music better than anybody's. It is so loud that one can talk the whole time without other people hearing what one says.

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

Ultimately the bond of all companionship, whether in marriage or in friendship, is conversation, and conversation must have a common basis, and between two people of widely different culture the only common basis possible is the lowest level.

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

She is a peacock in everything...

She is a peacock in everything but beauty!

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

Miss Prism: Do not speak sligh...

Miss Prism: Do not speak slightingly of the three-volume novel, Cecily. I wrote one myself in earlier days. Cecily: Did you really, Miss Prism? How wonderfully clever you are! I hope it did not end happily? I don't like novels that end happily. They depress me so much. Miss Prism: The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what fiction means.

How else but through a broken heart may Lord Christ enter in?

A simile committing suicide is always a depressing spectacle.

Men know life too early. Women know life too late. That is the difference between men and women.

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

Faithfulness is to the emotion...

Faithfulness is to the emotional life what consistency is to the life of the intellect - simply a confession of failures.

Oscar Wilde 2454 quotes

I don't like compliments, and I don't see why a man should think he is pleasing a woman enormously when he says to her a whole heap of things that he doesn't mean.
