What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Quotations
Oscar Wilde
There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.
One is absolutely sickened, not by crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted; and a community is infinitely more brutalised by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurrence of crime.
A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees dawn before the rest of the world.
A life without love is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring.
Imagination is a quality given to a man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humour is provided to console him for what he is.
