I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to us... - Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

"A man can be happy with any woman as long as he does not love her."

"The only horrible thing in the world is ennui."

"You are a wonderful creation. You know more than you think you know, just as you know less than you want to know."

"The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it."

"When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving one's self, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance."
