very nicely put Claire.Infact I liked all d quotes of O.Wilde u've posted here.One thing which cannot be overlooked s dat dey surely do brought a smile .As he s a writer known for his cynical n satarical comedy dat was his main line of work isn't it??? creating humour in a satarical way,just one more way of bringing smile to lips.we shuld try to njoy his works in d unique way of his.
