Quote by Oscar Wilde
As a wicked man I am a complete failure. Why, there are lots of people who say I have never really done anything wrong in the whole course of my life. Of course they only say it behind my back.
Summary
This quote humorously expresses the self-perceived failure of the speaker in being wicked. Despite being labeled as wicked, the speaker asserts that others claim they have never witnessed any truly malicious actions committed by them. However, it is suggested that these statements are made behind the speaker's back, implying a gap between outward perception and personal intent. This quote highlights the irony and possibly the loneliness of failing to meet society's expectations of wickedness.
