“I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.”
Quote by -Oscar Wilde
“Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault. Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are the cultivated. For these there is hope. They are the elect to whom beautiful things mean only Beauty. There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all.”
Quote by -Oscar Wilde
“Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.”
