Oscar Wilde Quotes, Believe Quotes, People Quotes

The world has become sad because a puppet was once melancholy. The nihilist, that strange martyr who has no faith, who goes to the stake without enthusiasm, and dies for what he does not believe in, is a purely literary product.

Literature always anticipates life. It does not copy it, but moulds it to its purpose.
