Love oneself always sounded a bit soppy to me - I couldn't do that so I changed it to 'accept and care' about myself. But I believe in this very much.

RE: My dirty mind. Given the source of this quotation, I can't help but wonder just what kind of self "love" Wilde was thinking of. Sorry, I'm being smarmy.

Well, I don't know anything about Oscar Wilde but I am an admirer of his quotes. I think I like your interpretation of it better than what he probably meant. I'm actually surprised my own mind didn't go there too, damn, that really shows how depressed I am now. Quote

Well the quote is definitely one that will help us feel better but I think it will bring us back on topic, but we could make a go of seeing how much havoc we can create with it. I'll go look for it now. Quote
