“Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.”

GingerAntics 🤣😂🤣 4y
Gezemice @GingerAntics Oscar is a witty man. 4y
GingerAntics He really is. Is it odd that I completely agree with this assessment? I‘m still wearing the same style I grew up with. I‘m not even kidding. It‘s comfortable and functional. What else do I need?! 4y
Gezemice @GingerAntics There is nothing wrong with that! Most of my clothes are pretty immune to fashion changes, too. I only buy something fashionable if I happen to like it anyway. And some years it is impossible to buy clothes because the fashion is something hideous - like a few years ago even T-shirts had ruffles. WTF. And my little kid loved yellow and at that time every girl clothing was red or pink. I ended up making her some clothes. 4y
GingerAntics Oh yeah. I was that kid. I pray if I ever had a kid it‘s a boy, because I just do not so sequins and my daughter isn‘t wearing them until she can ask for them. I swear. 4y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa It was a fast change here too! 4y
StayCurious I always think of that scene in the animated Thumbelina movie from when I was a kid where the fairies change the season overnight. 4y

OriginalCyn620 Love it! Wilde has so many great quotes! 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620 btw I‘ve never read any of his work unless it was in school 🙈🙀 4y
OriginalCyn620 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I figured maybe that was the case since he‘s “classic” 😂 (but you really should!) 4y
Betty_Boa I have a bookmark with this quote 😁 4y

#QuotsyMar20 - Spectator:

It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors. Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex and vital.

I do love this bookmark (thanks @Christine11 😊) - it's been appearing a lot recently!

But it does presuppose the ability to feel #happiness, which really isn't a given all of the time. So today I'm grateful that I can & do feel happy. And I'm grateful to the doctors (particularly the one in the polka dot bow tie) who listen and take mental health into account, even when prescribing for physical stuff.
