I suppose society is wonderfully delightful. To be in it is merely a bore. But to be out of it is simply a tragedy.
From Oscar Wilde
No woman should ever be quite accurate about her age. It looks so calculating.
Arguments are to be avoided: they are always vulgar and often convincing.
The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.
Nothing is so aggravating than calmness.
In married life three is company and two none.
Work is the curse of the drinking classes.
Bigamy is having one wife too many. Monogamy is the same.
The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.
In America the President reigns for four years, and Journalism governs forever and ever.
