  11. Person says:

    I loved this. Until I saw the second to last one. I love Oscar Wilde quotes, but I don’t think you should use a Twilight picture for any of them. And the Twilight picture in that one destroys the meaning of that quote – it takes it MUCH to literally.
    Otherwise a great post.

  12. Heron says:

    Oscar Wilde <3

    Agh the Twilight one though.Thinking

  13. aristhos12o' says:

    rubish. Wilde is cool (just.. cool), but this site is crap. I mean, the twilight pic for an existencialist horror vacui quotation really is crap.

  14. Lucy ♥ says:

    I stumbled on this and it made me smile.
    All except the twilight one, but it seems i’m not alone there!
    great stuff otherwise though. Grin

  15. quinn says:

    i like this page, just wish they could have found a better picture the twilight.

  16. Skip says:

    I adore the Twilight one- probably my favorite haha!
    And Oscar Wilde might just be my new hero. ♥

  17. m says:

    i like the quotes, but then there’s twilight and i’m like, ACK! Eek!

  18. B says:

    Sad that you didn’t have my all time favorite Oscar Wilde quote on here, but I do have to admit I do like the quotes you did pick. ALTHOUGH I hate how you picked twilight for one of the pictures.

    “Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”

  19. JC says:

    Wat is the painting with the quote i can resist anything but temptation on it?

  20. WTFF says:

    How dare you put one of Oscar’s quotes on a Twilight picture. Wrong.

  21. Joejoh says:

    “Experience is the name everyone gives to his mistakes”

    It’s always better to perceive your mistakes as an experience you have gained and not anything else!
    Inspiring quote!

  22. Joejoh says:

    its sad, i just noticed that he passed away on 1990, the year i was born.
    also viewed his family tree on this website http://www.katagogi.com/mid18318072
