Oscar Wilde's Wit and Wisdom
by Oscar Wilde

In this collection of nearly 400 Oscar Wilde quotations, you will find the very best of Wilde's quips on numerous subjects. It's small and cheaply printed, but what do you expect for a dollar?


The Importance of Being a Wit : The Insults of Oscar Wilde
by Oscar Wilde, Maria Leach (Compiler)

Oscar Wilde was the master of the studied insult. His jabs at hypocrisy, pretense, and boring conventionality still have a penetrating power. His snubs and put-downs became the talk of his time, no less by his targets than by Oscar Wilde himself. This collection features over 750 biting comments gathered from the master's works.


I Can Resist Everything Except Temptation
by Oscar Wilde, Karl E. Beckson

Another collection of Oscar's best quotations. Over 1000 quotes. Each entry includes a source citation, which is great for those who haven't read his works and don't want to resist the temptation of reading them in full.
