in love with a dead man....

The artist is the creator of beautiful things.

Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charmed. This is a fault.

Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are cultivated. For these there is hope.

There are no such thing as a moral or immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written.
That is all.

Oscar Wilde.

Is it possible to be in love with someone who no longer exists?........

A little over dramatic but that's the reality. Since graduating i haven't been myself. Striving to make a living but its leading to a dead end. Enough of me harping on with a sob stories ...we'll spare the mansize kleenex, violins, and a bottle of vodka to drown my sorrows. However i'm in love with Oscar Wilde. Strange but true. His writing amazing and having not read a book in 4 months compared to reading 3 BOOKS A WEEK! I stumbled across 'The picture of Dorian Grey " in a bookshop for 20p i call that a bargain! Since turing the first page i haven't been able to put it down. He is an exceptional writer. Atention must be paid (hence the love letter for a dead man, and if you haven't read his work, PLEASE DO!

As Dorian's character states
" i might mimic a passion that i do not feel, but i cannot mimic one that burns me like fire.'

He is a literary genius ! Oscar (drives me) Wilde!
