Quotes

  • Strong men are made by opposition; like kites they go up against the wind.
  • Happiness is not essential to the artist; happiness never creates anything but memories.
  • "Just as work is the curse of the drinking classes of this country," [Wilde] said laughing, "so education is the curse of the acting classes."
  • Shaw's relations with women have always been gallant, coy even. The number he has surrendered to physically have been few – perhaps not half a dozen in all – the first man to have cut a path through the theatre and left it strewn with virgins.
  • My dear Duke, I know nothing of the joys of homo-sexuality. You must speak to my friend Oscar about that. And yet, if Shakespeare had asked me, I would have had to submit.
  • Christ goes deeper than I do, but I have had a wider experience.
