If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.
From Oscar Wilde
Why was I born with such contemporaries?
The imagination imitates. It is the critical spirit that creates.
What we have to do, what at any rate it is our duty to do, is to revive the old art of Lying.
I see when men love women. They give them but a little of their lives. But women when they love give everything.
The man who can dominate a London dinner-table can dominate the world.
If one plays good music, people don't listen and if one plays bad music people don't talk.
Man can believe the impossible, but man can never believe the improbable.
Men marry because they are tired; women, because they are curious; both are disappointed.
The spirit of an age may be best expressed in the abstract ideal arts, for the spirit itself is abstract and ideal.
