Beauty has as many meanings as man has moods. Beauty is the symbol of symbols. Beauty reveals everything, because it expresses nothing. When it shows us itself, it shows us the whole fiery-coloured world.Oscar Wilde
One can survive everything, nowadays, except death, and live down everything except a good reputation.Oscar Wilde
The aim of life is self-development. To realize ones nature perfectly — that is what each of us is here for.Oscar Wilde
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.Oscar Wilde
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their peril. It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors. Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex and vital.Oscar Wilde
