Oscar Wilde Quotes My name has two Os, two Fs and two Ws. A name that is destined to be in everybody’s mouth must not be too long. It comes so expensive in advertisements. When one is unknown, a number of Christian names are useful, perhaps even needful. As one becomes famous, one sheds some of them, just as a balloonist, ...rising higher, sheds unnecessary ballast... All but two of my five names have been thrown overboard. Soon I shall discard another and be known simply as ‘The Wilde’ or ‘The Oscar’. Education is an admirable thing. But it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught. We teach people how to remember, we never teach them how to grow. I am not young enough to know everything. It is a very sad thing that nowadays there is so little useless information. I have made an important discovery... that alcohol, taken in sufficient quantities, produces all the effect of intoxication. Work is the curse of the drinking classes of this country. America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between.

Glossary entry for Wilde, Oscar The following is extracted from the "Wild Wilde Web": Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854-1900) was born on 16 October 1854 in Dublin. He would later assert that a name which is destined to be in everyone's mouth must not be too long. All the world would come to know him simply as Oscar Wilde. Oscar Wilde was educated at Trinity College, Dublin, and later at Oxfordwhere he discovered the dangerous and delightful distinction of being different from others. In 1881 his collected poems were published. In 1882, short of money, Mr. Wilde accepted an invitation to embark on a lecture tour of America. The tour was an unmitigated smash and Mr. Wilde returned to London in triumph and richer by several thousand pounds. Mr. Wilde married Constance Lloyd, the daughter of an Irish barrister in 1884. They had two sons, Cyril and Vyvyan. In 1891 a guest of the Wilde's brought a young man to tea. Alfred DouglasBosiewas the foppish, poet son of the Marquess of Queensberry. They were immediately attracted to each other. Bosie was taken with the brilliance of Mr. Wilde's conversation and wit, and Mr. Wilde was entranced by young Queensberry's good looks and title. Outraged by his son's association with Mr. Wilde, the Marquess of Queensberry left a visiting card at Wilde's stylish London club, the Albemarle, upon which he had written, To Oscar Wilde posing as a somdomitehis spelling. Encouraged by Bosie whose hatred for his own father obscured his affection for his friend, Mr. Wilde pressed suit for criminal libel. The case was lost and Wilde charged with homosexual offences. The jury failed to reach a decision at the first trial, but at a second trial Mr. Wilde was found guilty and sentenced to two years in Reading Gaol (pronounced redd-ing jail). He was forced to labor in prison and his meals consisted mainly of gruel, suet, water and greasy cocoa. While in prison Mr. Wilde was declared bankrupt; his house and possessions were sold to pay his debts.

Oscar Wilde, 1854-1900 Oscar Wilde was born in 1854 and grew up in an intellectually bustling Irish household. His mother was a poet who wrote under the pen name Speranza and who had a considerable following; his father was a renowned physician with an interest in myths and folklore. At Oxford he won a coveted poetry award and came under the influence of the late nineteenth century aesthetic movement. He found its notions of "art for art's sake" and dedicating one's life to art suitable to his temperment and talents. Oscar had a desire to make himself famous and set off to London to do just that. From 1878 to 1881 Oscar Wilde became well known for being well known despite having any substantial acheivements to build on. He insinuated himself into the class of people he labelled as "the beautiful people", wore outrageous clothes, passed himself off as an art critic and aesthete, and built a reputation for saying shocking things and doing ammusing ones. If one tells the truth, one is sure sooner or later to be found out. His natural wit and good humour endeared him to the art and theatre world and through his lover Frank Miles he found easy entry into the cliques that frequented London's theater circuit and drawing rooms.

Oscar Wilde Oscar Fingal O'Flaherty Wills Wilde (1854-1900), Irish author. Born October 16, 1854 in Dublin, Ireland to Sir William and Lady Jane Wilde. His mother, Jane Francisca Elgee, was well known in Dublin as a graceful writer under the pen-name of Speranza . Wilde studied the classics at Trinity College, Dublin, with distinction, and went on to Magdalen College, Oxford, in 1874. While there he won the Newdigate Prize in 1878 with his poem Ravenna. At Oxford, though he proved himself to be brilliant intellectually, he was particularly well known for his role in the aesthetic and decadent movements. He adopted an effeminate pose, casting scorn on manly sports, wearing his hair long, and decorating his rooms with peacock feathers, lilies, sunflowers, blue china and other objets d'art. Moreover he declared his desire to "live up to" these things. He also affected a lackadaisical manner, and professed intense emotions on the subject of Theophile Gautier's "art for art's sake", then a new-fangled doctrine, which the artist James McNeill Whistler was bringing into prominence. Wilde made himself the apostle of this new cult. At Oxford his behaviour cost him a ducking in the river Cherwell in addition to having his rooms trashed, but the cult spread among certain segments of society to such an extent that languishing attitudes, too-too costumes and aestheticism generally became a recognized pose. Its affectations were caricatured in Gilbert and Sullivan's mocking operetta
