The ability of the theist to misunderstand a thing is directly proportional to the obviousness of the thing.
Oscar WildeI am sick to death of cleverness. Everybody is clever nowadays. You can't go anywhere without meeting clever people. The thing has become an absolute public nuisance. I wish to goodness we had a few fools left. ALGERNON: We have. JACK: I should extremely like to meet them. What do they talk about? ALGERNON: The fools? Oh! about the clever people of course. JACK: What fools.
Oscar WildeThere were moments when he looked on evil simply as a mode through which he could realize his conception of the beautiful.
