Gems of truth from Oscar Wilde

From the witty comedy "An Ideal Husband":

"To look at a thing is quite different from seeing a thing. And one does not see anything until one sees its beauty."

"It is not the perfect but the imperfect who have need of love. It takes great courage to see the world in all its tainted glory and still to love it. And even more courage to see it in the one you love."
