Algunas fracesitas del genio de Oscar Wilde...

Estoy leyendo El Retrato de Dorian Gray, y quería compartir algunas cosas que me encantaron. Espero que les guste. Lo dejo en inglés, para las angloparlantes miembras del COEE!

"The advantage of the emotions is that they lead us astray, and the advantage of Science is that it is not emotional".

"'When America was discovered', said the Radical member, and he begun to give some wearisome facts. Like all the people who try to exhaust a subject, he exhausted his listeners."

"Philantropic people lose all sense of humanity. It is their distinguishing charcteristic."

"The son (...) had set himself to the serious study of the great aristocratic art of doing absolutely nothing."

Oscar Wilde, "The Picture of Dorian Grey", Chancellor Press, 1991, pp 24, 27, 29, 30.
