Naturally, any Wilde quotes are shared out of appreciation for their wit, not as endorsements of veracity.

“Women defend themselves by attacking, just as they attack by sudden and strange surrenders.” -Oscar Wilde

“Our proverbs want re-writing. They were made in winter, and it is summer now.” -Oscar Wilde
