More quotes by Oscar Wilde

"nothing that is worth knowing can be taught"
"My own business always bores me to death; I prefer other people's."
"I won't tell you that the world matters nothing, or the world's voice, or the voice of society. They matter a good deal. They matter far too much. But there are moments when one has to choose between living one's own life, fully, entirely, completely—or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in its hypocrisy demands. You have that moment now. Choose!"
"A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything, and the value of nothing."
"Crying is for plain women. Pretty women go shopping."
