Oscar Wilde is the author of The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Importance of Being Earnest, as well as some of the most quoted lines ever written: We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. I can resist everything except temptation. A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. The truth is rarely pure and never simple.

The following is a personality profile of Oscar Wilde based on his work.
Oscar Wilde is boisterous, expressive and shrewd.
He is laid-back, he appreciates a relaxed pace in life. He is intermittent as well: he has a hard time sticking with difficult tasks for a long period of time. But, Oscar Wilde is also carefree: he does what he wants, disregarding rules and obligations.
More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for discovery.
Considers helping others to guide a large part of what he does: he thinks it is important to take care of the people around him. He is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: he cares more about making his own path than following what others have done.
