Oscar Wilde
“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an ass of yourself.”
Oscar Wilde

Lemony Snicket
“Composer” is a word which here means “a person who sits in a room, muttering and humming and figuring out what notes the orchestra is going to play.” This is called composing. But last night, the Composer was not muttering. He was not humming. He was not moving, or even breathing.
This is called decomposing.”
Lemony Snicket, The Composer Is Dead

Oscar Wilde
“Men always want to be a woman’s first love. That is their clumsy vanity. We women have a more subtle instinct about these things. What (women) like is to be a man’s last romance.”
Oscar Wilde
