66. The Picture of Dorian Gray: Oscar Wilde
One of my favorites. If I only could keep 5 of my books and give the rest away, this would be the one I grabbed first. My friend Alex was kind enough to give this to me as a present, and I’m very grateful :)
Words!Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid, and cruel! One could not
escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them!
All art is quite useless.
Oscar Wilde, found in the first pages of The Picture of Dorian Gray.
