Between men and women there is no friendship possible.
There is passion, enmity,
worship, love,
but no friendship...

People are either charming

Seriousness is the only refuge
of the shallow…

you get the result...
![Page 31: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

The imagination imitates. It is the critical spirit
that creates…
![Page 33: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

It forgives everything except genius…

There is always something infinitely
mean about other
people's tragedies…

One should always play fairly
when one has the winning cards...
![Page 38: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
I like persons better than principles, and I like persons with no principles better than anything else in the world…
![Page 39: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
It is better to be beautiful than to be good…
But... it is better to be good than to be ugly…

The true mystery of the world
is the visible, not the invisible. ..

If you are not too long… I will wait here for you all my life…
![Page 43: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
If you pretend to be good, the world takes you very seriously… If you pretend to be bad, it doesn't... Such is the astounding stupidity of optimism...

I suppose society is wonderfully
delightful… To be in it
is merely a bore… But to be out of it
is simply a tragedy…
![Page 45: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
I think that God, in creating man,
somewhat overestimated his ability…

I put all my genius into my life;
I put only my talent into my works…

I can stand brute force, but brute reason is quite unbearable… There is something unfair about its use… It is hitting below the intellect…
![Page 49: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word
of what I am saying…
![Page 52: Oscar Wilde said… The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple…](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649e855503460f94b8780d/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
