Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

|
Our next Master of Chiasmus is the inimitable Oscar Wilde, one of the greatest writers and wits—and certainly
one of the most colorful characters—in literary history. Wilde experimented with chiasmus innumerable times in both
his writings and in his everyday conversation. I'll present a number of my favorite chiastic quotes from "The Oscar" here.
