"You will always be in love with the idea of love itself. A grand passion is the privilege of people who have nothing to do."
Oscar Wilde ‘Picture of Dorian Gray’
Oscar Wilde’s grave is covered in lipstick kisses, left by admirers maybe not so much of his writings but maybe more of his wit and daring lifestyle. A hero and martyr to some, Wilde embodies the original rebel, the wild one, the one who speaks to the public on his own terms.
"Nothing makes one so vain as being told one is a sinner. Conscience makes egotists of us all."
Oscar Wilde
"
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
"Oscar Wilde
"But I can’t help detesting my relations. I suppose it comes from the fact that none of us can stand other people having the same faults as ourselves."
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
