I like some of the new items available from the Requiem bundles. Have to wait for the spirit bundle versions to be listed in the marketplace though so I can add them to my wishlist though... *sighs*

Excellent words, Oscar, excellent words!

I like this saying that Oscar mentions in his De Profundis letter:
"I treated Art as the supreme reality, and life as a mere mode of fiction: I awoke the imagination of my century so that it created myth and legend around me: I summed up all systems in a phrase, and all existence in an epigram."

*laughs* I loved Oscar Wilde's responses during his trial. For example:
"I can suggest, for the sake of your reputation, that there is nothing very wonderful in this 'red rose-leaf lips of yours'?"
"A great deal depends on the way it is read."
"'You slim gilt soul walks between passion and poetry,'" Carson continued. "Is that a beautiful phrase?"
"Not as you read it, Mr. Carson. You read it very badly."

Another great saying from Oscar:
"It appears to me to be a question of taste, temperament, and individuality. I should say that one man's poetry is another man's poison!"

I've started noticing that I prefer British literature more and more than American literature. Very intriguing I think.

Read part 11 of Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself". eek Oh my. That's definitely... um.. suggestive. Much more than the other homosexual relationship-oriented pieces we've read. Wow... definitely is going to be interesting hearing people's reactions to that part. xd sweatdrop
