"Be warned in time, James, and remain,..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“I often take exercise. Why only yesterday I had breakfast in bed.”

“To be good, according to the vulgar standard of goodness, is obviously quite easy. It merely requires a certain amount of sordid terror, a certain lack of imaginative thought, and a certain low passion for middle-class respectability.”

“As for the virtuous poor, one can pity them of course, but one cannot possibly admire them.”

“He alone is great who turns the voice of the wind into a song made sweeter by his own loving.”

“Every person has seeds of greatness within, even though they may currently be dormant.”

“So many people have this idea: I want to achieve something great or be somebody great. And they neglect the step that leads to greatness. They don't honor this step at this moment because they have this idea of some future moment where they are going to be great.”

“I am but too conscious of the fact that we are born in an age when only the dull are treated seriously, and I live in terror of not being misunderstood.”

“I live in terror of not being misunderstood.”

“No one would talk much in society if they knew how often they misunderstood others.”
