Who, being loved, is poor? - Oscar Wilde

"Life is not complex. We are complex. Life is simple, and the simple thing is the right thing."

"If a work of art is rich and vital and complete, those who have artistic instincts will see its beauty, and those to whom ethics appeal more strongly than aesthetics will see its moral lesson. It will fill the cowardly with terror, and the unclean will see in it their own shame."

"A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it."

"nothing that is worth knowing can be taught"

"You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear."
