• Oscar Wilde — Deviant, Poet and One Witty Fella

  
  The Jailbreak — Authority: 577
  For only $255.66 , you too can have a bit of Oscar Wilde hanging in the living room. Watch out for the wit, though. It might hit you in the face.

• Desecrating a literary grave

  
  KR Blog — Authority: 119
  Recently, I’ve been spending more time than usual scanning bookshelves for volumes where juicy adjectival promises, like ‘Complete,’ or the alluring evidence of ‘Letters’ figure into the title and thus suggest to me, in their assumed breadth, the quotable fury that will ignite my paltry insights into “What ...

• Real Beauty Ends Where Intellectual Expression Begins – Oscar Wilde

  
  Tom Stine — Authority: 485
  But beauty, real beauty, ends where intellectual expression begins. Intellect is in itself a mode of exaggeration, and destroys the harmony of a face. The moment one sits down to think, one becomes all nose, or all forehead, or something horrid. Look at the successful men in any of the learned professions. How ...

• Wilde thing

  
  The Hub Review — Authority: 128
