Famous quotes containing the word wilde:

    “No publisher should ever express an opinion on the value of what he publishes. That is a matter entirely for the literary critic to decide.... I can quite understand how any ordinary critic would be strongly prejudiced against a work that was accompanied by a premature and unnecessary panegyric from the publisher. A publisher is simply a useful middle-man. It is not for him to anticipate the verdict of criticism.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “Pray don’t talk to me about the weather, Mr. Worthing. Whenever people talk to me about the weather, I always feel quite certain that they mean something else.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “Anybody can make history. Only a great man can write it.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
