Oscar Wilde

I forget that every little action of the common day makes or unmakes character, therefore what one does in the secret chamber one has some day to cry aloud on the housetops.

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

Music is the perfect type of art.

The optimist sees the doghnut, the pessimist the hole.

For the stage is not merely the meeting place of all the arts, but is also the return of art to life.

"In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you."

Ultimately the bond of all companionship, whether in marraige or in friendship, is conversation.

A live unexamined isn't worth living. I will add, "A life unlived isn't worth examining."
