I would like to dedicate these beautiful lines taken from" The Picture of Dorian Gray, "the incomparable Oscar Wilde, to all those who are afraid of growing old and those who do not take decisions for fear of making mistakes. "Ah, Lord Henry, I want to tell me how to regain its youth.
He mused for a moment. - May remember a few big mistake that she committed in his youth, Duchess? - Asked looking at her across the table.
- too many, alas, - she cried.
- and then commit them again, - he said gravely. - To regain their youth, simply repeat their follies.
- A delightful theory! - She exclaimed. I have to put it into practice.
- A dangerous theory! - Came from the lips of Lord Thomas. Lady Agatha shook her head, but it was as much fun. Mr. Erskine was listening. - Yes - he continued Lord Henry, - this is one of the great secrets of life. Nowadays all die of creeping common sense, and discover too late that the only thing that ever regrets are not our mistakes. "
