The one charm about the past is that it is the past. But women never know when the curtain has fallen. They always want a sixth act, and as soon as the interest of the play is entirely over, they propose to continue it. If they were allowed their own way, every comedy would have a tragic ending, and every tragedy would culminate in a farce. They are charmingly artificial, but they have no sense of art.

La Bellezza è l'unica cosa contro cui la forza del tempo sia vana. Le filosofie si disgregano come la sabbia, le credenze si succedono l'una all'altra, ma ciò che è bello è una gioia per tutte le stagioni, ed è un possesso per tutta l'eternità.

Oscar Wilde

L'uomo è un essere dalle molteplici vite e dalle innumeri sensazioni; una creatura complessa e multiforme, porta seco strane eredità di pensiero e di passioni e perfino la sua carne è inquinata dalle misteriose malattie dei morti.

Oscar Wilde
