"The best people to work for are..." - Quote by Oscar Wilde

“A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament. Its beauty comes from the fact that the author is what he is. It has nothing to do with the fact that other people want what they want.”

“But then one regrets the loss even of one's worst habits. Perhaps one regrets them the most. They are such an essential part of one's personality.”

“As for the virtuous poor, one can pity them, of course, but one cannot possibly admire them. They have made private terms with the enemy, and sold their birthright for very bad pottage. They must also be extraordinarily stupid.”

“Life is a do-it-yourself kit, so do it yourself. Work. Practice.”

“I learned very soon to get along by myself.”

“If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.”

“Non-co-operation is the nation's notice that it is no longer satisfied to be in tutelage.”

“The painter must be solitary. For if you are alone you are completely yourself, but if you are accompanied by a single companion, you are only half yourself.”

“Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor. Which is one very strong argument in favor of matrimony.”
