Oscar Wilde Rich Quotations

If a work of art is rich and vital and complete, those who have artistic instincts will see its beauty, and those to whom ethics appeal more strongly than aesthetics will see its moral lesson. It will fill the cowardly with terror, and the unclean will see in it their own shame.

Philanthropy is the refuge of rich people who wish to annoy their fellow creatures.

Extravagance is the luxury of the poor; penury is the luxury of the rich.

If property had simply pleasures, we could stand it; but its duties make it unbearable. In the interest of the rich we must get rid of it.

In war, the strong make slaves of the weak, and in peace the rich makes slaves of the poor.
