leia131Here I present a few random quotes from The Importance of Being Ernest, and the video we watched on Oscar Wilde, because I like them and I don't want to forget them. Also, Oscar Wilde was TEH AWESOME.
From Ernest:
The truth is rarely pure and never simple. - Algernon
If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life. - Gwendolyn
To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune - to lose both seems like carelessness. - Lady Bracknell
By Oscar himself:
I am afraid I play no outdoor games at all, except dominoes. I have sometimes played dominoes outside French cafes. (He played DOMINOES. Cause he was AWESOME.)
The best way to resist temptation is to give in to it.
(When asked by a customs official if he had anything to declare when he entered America:) I have nothing to declare except my genius.
A patriot put in jail for loving his country, loves his country. A poet put in jail for loving boys, loves boys. (I think this may be my new favorite quote.)
