“Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace.”
The Canterville Ghost • Oscar Wilde“If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.”
The Nightingale and the Rose • Oscar Wilde“His own heart laughed: and that was quite enough for him.”
A Christmas Carol • Charles Dickens“Take away ambition and vanity, and where will be your heroes and patriots?”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“The fact is, that civilisation requires slaves. The Greeks were quite right there. Unless there are slaves to do the ugly, horrible, uninteresting work, culture and contemplation become almost impossible. Human slavery is wrong, insecure, and demoralizing. On mechanical slavery, on the slavery of the machine, the future of the world depends.”
The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde
