"Life is far too important a thing..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man.”

“His morality is all sympathy, just what morality should be”

“What a pity that in life we only get our lessons when they are of no use to us.”

“Live your life so that whenever you lose, you are ahead.”

“Wisdom is to have dreams big enough not to lose sight when we pursue them.”

“Your life, my life, the life of each one of us is going to serve as either a warning or an example. A warning of the consequences of neglect, self-pity, lack of direction and ambition... or an example of talent put to use, of discipline self-imposed, and of objectives clearly perceived and intensely pursued.”

“No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.”

“You have to have a serious streak in you, or you can't see the funny side of the other fellow.”

“One of the problems we have as writers is we don't take ourselves seriously while writing; being serious is setting aside a time and saying if it comes, good; if it doesn't come, good, I'll just sit here.”
