I can resist everything except temptation.
- Oscar Wilde - Lady Windermere's Fan
Do you really think ... that it is weakness that yields to temptation? I tell you that there are terrible temptations that it requires strength, strength and courage, to yield to. To stake all one's life on a single moment, to risk everything on one throw, whether the stake be power or pleasure, I care not -- there is no weakness in that.
- Oscar Wilde - An Ideal Husband
The basis of optimism is sheer terror.
- Oscar Wilde - The Picture of Dorian Gray
