@OscarWildeUK @diaz_pesantes If only we noted down the great one liners we come up with on the phone! The only one I can remember:
'I'm not ashamed of my past, I'm ashamed of my future.'
@OscarWildeUK @stephenfry Love @stephenfry , one of my very favorite humans. I’d love to see Mr. Fry and Mr. Wilde (if he was alive) chat about.....everything. If you don’t know Mr. Fry, then your life is GREATLY diminished.
@Lone_Wolf_Queen @OscarWildeUK I often wonder if they are distant relatives

It’s so lovely to see my Wilde’s Women mentioned (with a link to his very positive review) in Michael Dirda’s absolutely delightful @washingtonpost essay on his collection of Wilde related books: @andrewlownie @Duckbooks @Matt_Casbourne @ABRAMSbooks
And it’s so lovely having Eleanor as an honorary patron to our society.
