Oscar Wilde quotes

The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.

There are only two kinds of people who are really fascinating: people who know absolutely everything, and people who know absolutely nothing.

We live in an age when unnecessary things are our only necessities.

The secret of life is to appreciate the pleasure of being terribly, terribly deceived.

When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers.

One's real life is often the life that one does not lead.

My own business always bores me to death; I prefer other people's.

I can resist anything but temptation.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
[
What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Only the shallow know themselves.
