Quote by Oscar Wilde

Vulgarity is the conduct of other people, just as falsehoods are the truths of other people.

Vulgarity is the conduct of other people, just as falsehoods

Summary

This quote suggests that what we consider as vulgar behavior is subjective and varies from person to person. Vulgarity is a judgment made by individuals about the conduct of others, and not necessarily an intrinsic characteristic of that behavior. Similarly, falsehoods or lies may be perceived as truths by different individuals, highlighting the subjectivity of truth as well. The quote emphasizes the importance of recognizing that our judgments of others may be influenced by our own biases, perspectives, and values.

The question is, how abstract can you get and still get the audience to feel something when they don't know what's happening to them?
