Famous quotes containing the word wilde:

    The value of an idea has nothing whatsoever to do with the sincerity of the man who expresses it. Indeed, the probabilities are that the more insincere the man is, the more purely intellectual will the idea be, as in that case it will not be coloured by either his wants, his desires, or his prejudices.
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Society often forgives the criminal; it never forgives the dreamer.
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    A sentimentalist, my dear Darlington, is a man who sees an absurd value in everything, and doesn’t know the market price of any single thing.
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
