Some "fascinating" quotes from Oscar Wilde..

The only thing that sustains one through life is the consciousness of the immense inferiority of everybody else, and this is a feeling that I have always cultivated.

Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

One can always be kind to people about whom one cares nothing.

Anybody can sympathize with the sufferings of a friend, but it requires a very fine nature to sympathize with a friend's success.

A man's face is his autobiography.
A woman's face is her work of fiction.


A true friend stabs you in the front.

It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.
