Quote by Oscar Wilde

“No, don’t speak! Say nothing! Your voice wakes terrible memories–memories of things that made me love you–memories of words that made me love you–memories that are now horrible to me […] The world seemed to me finer because you were in it, and goodness more real because you lived.”

“No, don't speak! Say nothing! Your voice wakes terrible memories - memories of things that made me love you - memories of words that made me love you - memories that now are horrible to me. And how I worshipped you! You were to me something apart from common life, a thing pure, noble, honest, without stain. The world seemed to me finer because you were in it, and goodness more real because you lived. And now - oh, when I think that I made of a man like you my ideal! the ideal of my life!”
