We were just looking at quotes in an English lesson at school today. Oscar Wilde came up with some good sayings.

"Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much."

"As long as a woman can look ten years younger than her own daughter, she is perfectly satisfied."

"Between the optimist and the pessimist, the difference is droll. The optimist sees the doughnut; the pessimist the hole!"

"Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months."

"I see when men love women. They give them but a little of their lives. But women when they love give everything".

Sorry, I didn't mean to steal your thread.

I have to disagree with the statement though.
