"Life under a good government is rarely..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.”

“The secret of remaining young is never to have an emotion that is unbecoming.”

“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.”

“Government is at best a petulant servant and at worst a tyrannical master.”

“Private enterprise manages so much better all the concerns to which it is equal.”

“The magistrates are the ministers for the laws, the judges their interpreters, the rest of us are servants of the law, that we all may be free.”

“We won't fully experience joy until we've answered life's biggest question: Why am I here?”

“Man is a beautiful machine that works very badly.”

“Different types of dangerous lives-You have no idea what you are living through; you rush through life as if you were drunk and now and then fall down some staircase. But thanks to your drunkenness you never break a limb; your muscles are too relaxed and your brain too benighted for you to find the stones of these stairs as hard as we do.”
