WILD ABOUT WILDE


I love Oscar Wilde! Here are a few favorite quotes:

"One should always play fairly when one has the winning cards."

"Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much."

"A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal."

"No man is rich enough to buy back his past."

"I prefer women with a past. They're always so damned amusing to talk to."-- “Lady Windermere's Fan”

"It is perfectly monstrous the way people go about, nowadays, saying things against one behind one's back that are absolutely and entirely true."-- “The Picture of Dorian Gray”

"Life is never fair...And perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not."-- “An Ideal Husband”

"We are each our own devil, and we make this world our hell."-- “The Duchess of Padua”


"The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast."-- “Lord Arthur Savile's Crime”

"To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance."-- “An Ideal Husband”
