“A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.”
― Oscar Wilde

“once I believed
love poems were foolish

now I read love poems
just for the sake of it

and yet perhaps I want
to reach a higher state of poetry

I don't know if that's right or wrong
but such a feeling persists anyway

and sometimes irritates me
provoking outrageous desires

once I believed
love poems were foolish

yet now I do nothing
but dream about love”
― Chūya Nakahara

“Hearts are made to be broken.”
― Oscar Wilde, De Profundis

“Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.”
― Oscar Wilde
