Oscar Wilde
“Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new sensations. Be afraid of nothing.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel...”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

Oscar Wilde
“How sad it is!" murmured Dorian Gray with his eyes still fixed upon his own portrait. "How sad it is! I shall grow old, and horrible, and dreadful. But this picture will remain always young. It will never be older than this particular day of June… . If it were only the other way! If it were I who was to be always young, and the picture that was to grow old! For that—for that—I would give everything! Yes, there is nothing in the whole world I would not give! I would give my soul for that!”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“I could not understand why men who knew all about good and evil could hate and kill each other.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
