Oscar Wilde 
 Queensberry, who argued a lot with his son, confronted Wilde and Lord Alfred about the nature of their relationship.
Oscar Wilde 
 In June 1894, he visited Wilde at 16 Tite Street without an appointment, and said: "If I catch you and my son again in any public restaurant I will thrash you."
Oscar Wilde 
 On the 18 February 1895, the Marquess left his calling card at Wilde's club, the Albemarle, inscribed: "For Oscar Wilde, posing as a sodomite".
Oscar Wilde 
 Wilde, egged on by Douglas and against the advice of his friends, initiated a private prosecution against Queensberry, and had him arrested on a charge of criminal libel.
Oscar Wilde 
 As sodomy was then a crime, Queensberry's note amounted to a public accusation that Wilde had committed a felony, forming the legal basis for libel charges.
Oscar Wilde 
 Queensberry could avoid conviction for libel only by demonstrating that his accusation was, in fact, true.
Oscar Wilde 
 In his opening speech for the defence, Counsel for Queensbury, Edward Carson, announced that he had found several male prostitutes who were to testify that they had sex with Wilde.
Oscar Wilde 
 Queensberry was found not guilty, as the court declared that his accusation that Wilde was "posing as a sodomite" was justified, "true in substance and in fact".
Oscar Wilde 
 Under the Libel Act 1843, Queensberry's acquittal rendered Wilde legally liable for the considerable expenses Queensberry had incurred in his defence, which left Wilde bankrupt.
Oscar Wilde 
 After Wilde left the court, a warrant for his arrest was applied for on charges of sodomy and gross indecency.
Oscar Wilde 
 Wilde was duly arrested and then imprisoned on remand at Holloway, where he received daily visits from Douglas.
Oscar Wilde 
 Wilde: " 'The love that dare not speak its name' in this century is such a great affection of an elder for a younger man as there was between David and Jonathan, such as Plato made the very basis of his philosophy, and such as you find in the sonnets of Michelangelo and Shakespeare.
Oscar Wilde 
 It dictates and pervades great works of art, like those of Shakespeare and Michelangelo, and those two letters of mine, such as they are.
Oscar Wilde 
 It is in this century misunderstood, so much misunderstood that it may be described as 'the love that dare not speak its name', and on that account of it I am placed where I am now.
Oscar Wilde 
 It is intellectual, and it repeatedly exists between an older and a younger man, when the older man has intellect, and the younger man has all the joy, hope and glamour of life before him.
Oscar Wilde 
 This response was, however, counterproductive in a legal sense as it only served to reinforce the charges of homosexual behaviour.
Oscar Wilde 
 The Reverend Stewart Headlam put up most of the £5,000 bail, having disagreed with Wilde's treatment by the press and the courts.
Oscar Wilde 
 Wilde was freed from Holloway and, shunning attention, went into hiding at the house of Ernest and Ada Leverson, two of his firm friends.
Oscar Wilde 
 Edward Carson approached Frank Lockwood (QC) and asked "Can we not let up on the fellow now?"p435 Lockwood answered that he would like to do so, but feared that the case had become too politicised to be dropped.
Oscar Wilde 
 At the final trial, Wilde and Alfred Taylor were convicted of gross indecency and sentenced to two years' hard labour.
Oscar Wilde 
 The judge described the sentence as "totally inadequate for a case such as this", although it was the maximum sentence allowed for the charge under the Criminal Law Amendment Act of 1885.

 The English country gentleman galloping after a fox—the unspeakable in full pursuit of the uneatable. (

 While he opposed a welfare state which would give money to people for doing nothing, he wanted to create jobs through several government programs, including the construction of a huge dam which would be later named Hoover Dam.
Herbert Hoover 
 The federal government received less money in tax revenues because of the bad economy, and the government was spending more money than it was taking in, so Hoover tried to increase the government's revenue to balance the budget.

 He also signed the largest tariff (a tax on goods that are traded between foreign countries and the United States) increase in American history which worsened the Great Depression, even though 1000 economists warned him not to sign that.

 Hoover denied giving promised retirement money to poor World War 1 veterans (called the Bonus Army) earlier than what was agreed to, so they went on strike.

 Hoover was uncharismatic and did not relate to the people well, which made many people consider him as mean-spirited.
