"Oh! it is absurd to have a hard-and-fast rule about what one should read and what one shouldn't. More than half of modern culture depends on what one shouldn't read."
Oscar Wilde was an Irish playwright, poet, and essayist associated with late Victorian aestheticism. He is known for The Importance of Being Earnest and The Picture of Dorian Gray. His wit and social satire made him one of the most quoted writers in English.
