Ok so i'm in the process of writing my seven deadly sins essay, which i had already mention on a post bellow...
so i'm looking for quotes right, cuz im that kind of person who always starts her essays with the oh so typical:
"William James once said '....'" or "J.K. Rowling once said '...'" etc
i'm also the kind of person who wears sweater vests, but that's neither here nor there...
so i google "quotes on sin" and i got like a trillion hits, but i just go to the first option (which by the way i have recently found out how people make their websites be the first on the list) and among the first ones up pops WIlde...
now here me out, of course i heard and even read some material by oscar wilde (i was jack when reading the importance of being ernest out loud in my senior english class for god sakes! yeah i dont know why i ended up being a guy, but whatever i was the best fucking jack ever.) i remember the importance of being ernest being hilarious, but i dont think i payed much attention.
This guy was brilliant!
i'll just write some of his quotes i found the coolest...
“Society exists only as a mental concept; in the real world there are only individuals.”
“I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.”
“Pessimist: One who, when he has the choice of two evils, chooses both.”
“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”
“If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life.”
“I am the only person in the world I should like to know thoroughly.”
“The heart was made to be broken”
"A man's face is his autobiography. A woman's face is her work of fiction. "
etc...
he is brilliant look him up. i know what im getting next time i go to barns and noble...
anyway...
peace
