Though he’s been six feet under for over a century, Oscar Wilde remains one of my favorite figures of note. To me, he’s not just famous for writing "A Picture of Dorian Gray." To me, he’s famous for being a fierce, sassy bisexual who will drink all your absinthe and spit out the wittiest one-liner. When I’m down in the dumps and need to cheer up, reading through a handful of his quotes usually does the trick. Seeing as our society seems to be hitting a rough patch, here’s a list of some of my favorite Oscar Wilde quotes?
1. “To live is the
rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
2. “Yes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find
his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the
rest of the world.”
3. “Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”
4. “Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.”
5. “If one cannot enjoy
reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.”
6. “Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone
else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”
7. “You can never be overdressed or overeducated.”
8. “Never love anyone who treats you like you're ordinary.”
