[ross hamilton hill]

I have always loved some of Oscar Wilde's epigrams, none of which (to my knowledge) are poems. Two are:

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

and

I can resist everything but temptation.

I also think Dorothy Parker is hard to beat.

Four be the things I'd have been better without:
Love, curiosity, freckles and doubt.

and of course

Men seldom make passes
at girls who wear glassses.
