No matter his issues, his predilections, his somewhat mad view of life the man was a genius. Here are but a few of his most fantastic quotes.
The Picture of Dorian Gray
There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all
Genius lasts longer than beauty.
Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.
To define is to limit.
Is insincerity such a terrible thing? I think not. It is merely a method by which we can multiply our personalities.
