Those who are faithful only know the trivial side of love; it is the faithless who know love’s tragedies.
Oscar Wild, Picture of Dorian Gray
43When one is in love, one always begins with deceiving one’s self, and one always ends by deceiving others.
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray (via slicky6987)
… we all take such pains to over-educate ourselves. In the wild struggle for existence, we want something that endures, so we fill our minds with rubbish and facts, in the silly hope of keeping our place.
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
Oscar Wilde, Picture of Dorian Gray (via slicky6987)
