How long could you love a woman who didn't love you, Cecil? A woman who didn't love me? Oh, all my life!
Oscar WildeRomance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement. Nothing spoils romance so much as a sense of humor in the woman. When one is in love one always begins by deceiving oneself, and one always ends by deceiving others. This is what the world calls a romance.
Oscar Wilde
