memoirs

‘I dislike modern memoirs.  They are generally written by people who have either entirely lost their memories, or have never done anything worth remembering.’

Oscar Wilde

I’m not sure that Oscar ever actually said this (I’ve never seen it quoted before), but it sounds like the sort of thing he might have, particularly if he’d ever had to sit through the collected ‘memories’ of Mesdames Price, Kantona and Mc Laughlin. Not to mention Messrs Beckham and Rooney.
