Quotes by Oscar Wilde for a deeper understanding of this world.

I made a fascinating video for you with quotes by Oscar Wilde.
He was an Irish poet and playwright. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of the most popular playwrights in London in the early 1890s. He is best remembered for his epigrams and plays, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the circumstances of his criminal conviction for gross indecency for consensual homosexual acts in "one of the first celebrity trials", imprisonment, and early death from meningitis at age 46.

@@Mipetz38 To generalize on anything is automatically wrong. There are good and bad men and women. There are great and small men and women. There are bitter philosophers who pontificate out of their shortcomings and some will believe them if they do not think for themselves. Wilde was a cad in life. His viewpoints are twisted by his personal shortcomings.

[@willieluncheonette5843]

"WHEN THE GODS WANT TO PUNISH US, THEY ANSWER OUR PRAYERS." Oscar Wilde is right. It often happens that what psychologists cannot explain about the human mind, the creative artist, the poet, can easily explore to the depths which are beyond logic, beyond reason, beyond scientific research. Oscar Wilde's statement is of tremendous value. When he says, "When the Gods want to punish us, they answer our prayers," he is saying something about our unconsciousness. We are not aware what we are doing, we are not aware what we are asking, we are not aware what we are praying for. Our consciousness is so superficial and our unconsciousness is so deep that it is bound to be that, if our prayers are fulfilled, it will not be a reward, it will be a punishment; because we had asked for something in our sleep and we will repent that we asked for it. For example, you are all aware of the Greek mythological story of King Midas. His only prayer for years was that he should be granted the power that whatever he touches becomes gold. Years came and went, his prayer remained unheard. He became more and more impatient, started fasting, started austerities to force the divine powers to grant him the power he had been asking for years. He also thought that what he was asking for was tremendously beautiful, great. If you were given the chance, you would also accept the opportunity immediately, without hesitation. Finally, the prayer was heard and his wish was fulfilled. He became capable of changing anything into gold. But then he became aware that he had destroyed himself by asking the gods to grant him this power because he could not eat, could not drink - he would touch a glass and the glass and the water would turn into gold. He would touch his food and it would turn into gold. Even his own wife would not come close to him. His own children would run away, because whomsoever he touched he turned into gold. Just within a week the man was almost mad, dying. He asked the gods again and again, "Take the power back, I had no idea what I was asking. I have been punished enough." His wife had turned into gold, his children had turned into gold. For seven days he had not eaten anything, he had not even been able to drink water; he was dying of thirst and hunger. While he was praying for years, he had been dreaming that if he were granted this power he would become the richest man in the whole world; and now he had become the poorest man ever - past, present, future. Nobody has ever been so poor. Friends would not come to see him. His own ministers all went on leave. He would sit in the court and nobody would turn up; he was left alone, and he had always been surrounded by people. He was a great king, now even beggars were not ready to be friendly with him or to come close to him. There are many mythological stories of the same type in all the languages, and they are not simply stories. They are descriptions of our unconscious mind. Unless you are fully conscious, your prayer is going to be a punishment if it is fulfilled. Because from where will it come? And the moment you are fully conscious you will not ask anything because the greatest treasure has already been given to you. A Gautam Buddha has nothing to ask for. He does not pray. He has no prayer, he has no god, he is utterly fulfilled and contented. He has no desire, he has nothing to ask, he is no more a beggar. The man of consciousness becomes an emperor. Oscar Wilde is a great genius, a poet, a creative artist. And these are the people - not your so-called dead saints - who have given humanity new insights into their own beings, into the possibilities of what they can ask and whether it is right to ask, or wait for the moment when you have come to a point of desirelessness."

Clever guy. "The title of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest is a triple pun, or some may consider it a triple entendre - the humor comes from the fact that the whole phrase can mean something different if the phrase is placed in a different context. Not only is it a homophonic pun on the name "Ernest" and the word "earnest," but it's also a homonymic pun or entendre) because "earnest" was a Victorian slang word meaning "homosexual."

Mucha gente suele tener una idea equivocada de Oscar Wilde, al considerarlo como una persona ingeniosa pero superficial. Por ello, recomiendo vivamente la lectura de su libro "De profundis", escrito desde la cárcel (ya que fue acusado de haber mantenido relaciones homosexuales, lo que en la Inglaterra victoriana se consideraba un delito) y dirigido a su amante, Lord Alfred Douglas. Pocas veces he visto un libro que aborde con tanta profundidad el sentido de la vida y del sufrimiento. Y además, escrito con un lenguaje exquisito (al menos en la traducción que he manejado).

It is a paradox, put forth to let anyone think about something which is taken for granted, I. E. The concept of gentlemen, for gentlemen would be those which does not hurt anyone.
