Ahhhhhhhh... dear Oscar, a fellow Irishman and well known...thespian!!!! I have a bunch of his clever quips...ok the next several days are Oscar Wilde verbal sideswipes and ditties.

Okay, how about this one:

"Arguments are to be avoided; they are always vulgar and often convincing."

Oh, I forgot; every post by me ends with an Oscar Wilde quote! It's my signiture... but I suppose I should shoot for interesting, and choose a new one.

Lea Delaria, comedian

"Thirty-five is a very attractive age. London society is full of women of the very highrest birth, who have, of their own free choice, remained thirty-five for years."

The dear Mr Wilde in The Importance of Being Earnest.

"When you do not tell the truth about your thoughts, feelings or actions, you are telling yourself that you are not worthy of the truth, that you are less than the other person, that you are only what others believe you to be. When you fear the judgements of others, you have given them the responsibility to judge you, the perogative to decide what is right and wrong for you, and the freedom to shape you and your life at their whims. ... Speaking the truth is believing in yourself."

--Danny Pharr: Personal Power essay, 2006 Wiches Datebook

Speaking the truth is believing in yourself.
