One should absorb the colour of life, but one should never remember its details. Details are always vulgar.
Oscar WildeNo great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist.
Oscar WildeWhat between the duties expected of one during one's lifetime, and the duties exacted from one after one's death, land has ceased to be either a profit or a pleasure. It gives one position, and prevents one from keeping it up. That's all that can be said about land.
Oscar Wilde
