"There is always something infinitely mean about..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“Down the long and silent street, The dawn, with silver-sandaled feet, Crept like a frightened girl.”

“We women, as some one says, love with our ears, just as you men love with your eyes.”

“I think life too complex a thing to be settled by these hard and fast rules.”

“Comedy is tragedy revisited.”

“Marriage -- yes, it is the supreme felicity of life. I concede it. And it is also the supreme tragedy of life. The deeper the love the surer the tragedy. And the more disconsolating when it comes.”

“In tragedy great men are more truly great than in history. We see them only in the crises which unfold them.”

“Clergymen and people who use phrases without wisdom sometimes talk of suffering as a mystery. It is really a revelation.”

“I must say to myself that I ruined myself, and that nobody great or small can be ruined except by his own hand. I am quite ready to say so. ... Terrible as was what the world did to me, what I did to myself was far more terrible still.”

“So long as space remainsSo long as sentient beings'Suffering remainsI will remainIn order to help,In order to serve.”
