Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (October 16, 1854 - November 30, 1900) was an Irish playwright, novelist, poet, short story writer and Freemason. Known for his barbed and clever wit, he was one of the most successful playwrights of late Victorian London, and one of the greatest celebrities of his day. Homosexuality was still against the law in England (and in fact would remain so until 1967) and Wilde was arrested for 'gross indecency' and sentenced to two years hard labour in 1895. He never fully recovered from this and would die penniless three years after his release. "Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination." - Oscar Wilde
