- The Ideal Man! Oh, the Ideal Man should talk to us as if we were goddesses, and treat us as if we were children. He should refuse all our serious requests, and gratify every one of our whims. He should encourage us to have caprices, and forbid us to have missions. 0 0 0
- Men always want to be a woman's first love. That is their clumsy vanity. We women have a more subtle instinct about things. What we like is to be a man's last romance. 0 0 0

- I never intend to grow old. The soul is born old but grows young. That is the comedy of life. And the body is born young and grows old. That is life's tragedy. 0 0 0

0奥斯卡·王尔德（Oscar Wilde，1854~1900），19世纪爱尔兰（当时由英国统治）最伟大的作家与艺术家之一，以其剧作、诗歌、童话和小说闻名。唯美主义代表人物，19世纪80年代美学运动的主力和90年代颓废派运动的先驱。
生于都柏林医生家庭。曾就读于都柏林三一学院。1878年毕业于牛津大学莫德林学院。求学期间受英国作家罗斯金（John Ruskin）和佩特（Walter Horatio Pater）影响，建立起以享乐主义为基础的唯美主义思想，并成为英国唯美主义的代表人物。1888年发表一组优美动人的童话《快乐王子故事集》（1888）。唯一的长篇小说《道林·格雷的画像》（1890）曾被斥为”邪书“。他在《道林·格雷的画像》的序言和论文集《意图》中系统阐述”为艺术而艺术“的美学观点，认为作品的价值在于艺术形式的完美，而与社会伦理道德无关。后接连发表风俗喜剧《理想的丈夫》（1898）等，演出后颇受欢迎。1895年《认真的重要》被认为是他的代表剧作。
1885年因被他人告发私生活不检点判服苦役两年。后写长诗《雷丁监狱之歌》（1898）描述自己的心情。出狱后移居巴黎，三年后客死他乡。作品还有独幕剧《莎乐美》（1895）、散文《谎言的衰朽》（1889）等。
