Additional quotes by Oscar Wilde

Psikologların söylediğine göre,hayatta öyle anlar vardır ki günaha -veya toplumun günah saydığı şeylere duyulan tutku kişinin benliğine o kadar el koyar ki bedenin her lifi, beynin her hücresi sanki korkunç itkilerle ayaklanır. Böyle zamanlarda kadınlar ve erkekler istem bağımsızlığını kaybederler. Kendilerini bekleyen sona kurulu birer robot gibi ilerlerler. Seçme yetisi ellerinden alınmıştır. Bilinç ya öldürülmüş, ya da sağsa, yalnızca isyan etmeye cazibe katmak, inatçılığı şirin göstermek için yaşıyordur. Çünkü bütün günahların kaynağı, ilahiyatçıların bıkıp usanmadan söyledikleri gibi, büyüklerin sözünü dinlememektir.
