Oscar Wilde Quotes
There is much to be said in favor of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.

By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.
