Quote of the Day (Oscar Wilde, on a Man Who Wants to Wed)


"I have always been of opinion that a man who desires to get married should know either everything or nothing."—Lady Bracknell, in Anglo-Irish playwright Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), The Importance of Being Earnest (1895)

(The image accompanying this quote features Judi Dench as the redoubtable Lady Bracknell, in the 2002 movie adaptation of Wilde’s sparkling comedy.)
