This is why I must but must be one of the inhabitants of MTV's \"Real World.\" Only there, burning brightly into a million dazzled eyes, will my as yet uncontoured self assume the beauteous forms that are not just its own, but an entire market niche's, due. I am a Kirk Cameron-Kurt Cobain figure, roguishly quirky, dandified but down to earth, kooky but comprehensible; denizen of the growing penumbra between alternative and mainstream culture; angsty prophet of the already bygone apocalypse, yet upbeat, stylish and sexy! Oscar Wilde wrote, \"Good artists exist in what they make, and consequently are perfectly uninteresting in what they are. A great poet, a really great poet, is the most unpoetical of all creatures. But inferior poets are absolutely fascinating... [they] live the poetry [they] cannot write.\" As with Dorian Gray, life is my art!

Wilde wrote it to his lover while in prison.) When first I was put into prison some people advised me to try and forget who I was. It was ruinous advice. It is only by realizing what I am that I have found comfort of any kind. Now I am advised by others to try on my release to forget that I have ever been in a prison at all. I know that would be equally fatal. It would mean that I would always be haunted by an intolerable sense of disgrace, and that those things that are meant for me as much as for anybody else – the beauty of the sun and moon, the pageant of the seasons, the music of daybreak and the silence of great nights, the rain falling through the leaves, or the dew creeping over the grass and making it silver – would all be tainted for me, and lose their healing power, and their power of communicating joy. To regret one's own experiences is to arrest one's own development. To deny one's own experiences is to put a lie into the lips of one's own life. It is no less than a denial of the soul.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Paulette Mahurin" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/paulette-mahurin/de-profundis-by-oscar-wilde-this-excerpt-inspired-my-book-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/b9c/paulette-mahurin-84665_books_de-profundis-by-oscar-wilde-this-excerpt_2820143.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/b9c/paulette-mahurin-84665_books_de-profundis-by-oscar-wilde-this-excerpt_2820143.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/b9c/paulette-mahurin-84665_books_de-profundis-by-oscar-wilde-this-excerpt_2820143.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“De Profundis by Oscar Wilde (this excerpt inspired my book, The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap.
