Oscar Wilde
“To be natural is such a very difficult pose to keep up.”
Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

George Eliot
“We mortals, men and women, devour many a disappointment between breakfast and dinner-time; keep back the tears and look a little pale about the lips, and in answer to inquiries say, "Oh, nothing!" Pride helps; and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our hurts— not to hurt others.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

W. Somerset Maugham
“If nobody spoke unless he had something to say, the human race would very soon lose the use of speech.”
W. Somerset Maugham, The Painted Veil

Oscar Wilde
“The truth is rarely pure and never simple.”
Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

George Eliot
“It is a common sentence that knowledge is power; but who hath duly considered or set forth the power of ignorance? Knowledge slowly builds up what ignorance in an hour pulls down.”
George Eliot, Daniel Deronda
