Here’s that passage
the wizard mentioned in
today’s MondayMorningMemo.
It’s from The New York Observer, March 31, 1910.
If you research those 14 words, you’ll find them attributed to
a number of people, though most assume it to be Oscar Wilde.
He never said it, although I do agree that it sounds like it
ought to have been it in The Ballad of Reading Goal.
