“One should never take sides in anything . . . Taking sides is the beginning of sincerity, and earnestness follows shortly afterwards, and the human being becomes a bore.” — Oscar Wilde Source: 1893 play A Woman of No Importance, Act 1 (Lord Illingworth)
A Woman of No Importance (play)
Oscar Wilde Quote
“Life’s aim, if it has one, is simply to be always looking for temptations. There are not nearly enough. I sometimes pass a whole day without coming across a single one.” — Oscar Wilde Source: A Woman of No Importance, Act 3, 1892 (Lord Illingworth)
