Oscar Wilde
“There are three kinds of despots. There is the despot who tyrannizes over the body. There is the despot who tyrannizes over the soul. There is the despot who tyrannizes over the soul and body alike. The first is called the Prince. The second is called the Pope. The third is called the People.”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

Oscar Wilde
“A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which Humanity is always landing. And when Humanity lands there, it looks out, and, seeing a better country, sets sail. Progress is the realisation of Utopias.”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

Oscar Wilde
“The true perfection of man lies, not in what man has, but in what man is.”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

Oscar Wilde
“The only thing that one really knows about human nature is that it changes. Change is the one quality we can predicate of it. The systems that fail are those that rely on the permanency of human nature, and not on its growth and development.”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

Oscar Wilde
“Know thyself' was written over the portal of the antique world. Over the portal of the new world, 'Be thyself' shall be written.”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism
