Oscar Wilde believed that art should not be judged by moral standards, as art is meant to be appreciated for its own sake and not held to the limitations of morality. He argued that art should be autonomous and not constrained by societal rules or norms, allowing individuals to experience beauty and truth in a pure and unadulterated form.

What does this quote mean Art like morality consists of drawing the line somewhere?

I don't know whether G. K. Chesterton said your quote first or if Oscar Wilde said "Morality, like art consists of drawing a line." The point is though, I believe they meant the same thing; the idea has more to do with morality than art, but it essentially means while art (at least one form) involves the physical expression of drawing a line, morality involves drawing a line metaphorically between write and wrong, et al.
