Quiet Man Cometh
We're all mad here.
I became more interested in Oscar Wilde after reading his De Profundis. I could quote something from it but it's already been done to the nines. Pick any Oscar Wilde quote and chances are it's in that book somewhere. One of my favourite Simpon's quirk was to have Oscar Wilde's ghost show up green like the absinthe fairy after Homer inhales too much glue while building a popsicle stick Westminster Abbey. Wilde speaks only in his own quote the entire time, and at the and *tings* the screen with a quilll or want thing like Tinkerbell in the old Disney intros. :D.
One of my favourite movies when I was a child was an old cartoon my grandmother sent us called "The Happy Prince." I only learned last year I think that it was one of Oscar Wilde's short stories after finally deciding to look up online.
Tea?
