When we are happy, we are always good, but when we are good, we are not always happy.

When we are happy, we are always good, but when we are good, we are not always happy.

Oscar Wilde
Happiness, Cheer, Laughter

I want the dead lovers of the world to hear our laughter, and grow sad. I want a breath of our passion to stir dust into consciousness, to wake their ashes into pain.

Oscar Wilde
Laughter, Pain, Passion
Oscar Wilde, General Press (2016). “The Complete Works of Oscar Wilde: Novel, Short Stories, Poetry, Essays and Plays”, p.49, GENERAL PRESS

Oscar Wilde
Laughter, Pain, Joy
