There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked... - Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
"There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about."
More quotes by Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
"But we never get back our youth… The pulse of joy that beats in us at twenty becomes sluggish. Our limbs fail, our senses rot. We degenerate into hideous puppets, haunted by the memory of the passions of which we were too much afraid, and the exquisite temptations that we had not the courage to yield to."
"It is perfectly monstrous,' he said, at last, 'the way people go about nowadays saying things against one behind one's back that are absolutely and entirely true."
"Jemanden zu beeinflussen bedeutet, ihm eine fremde Seele zu geben."
"You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit."
"Even things that are true can be proved."
