I guess what it means is, if life were always fair, everything would be too easy for us - we wouldn't grow or develop or learn to cope. We wouldn't be as strong people. Life would be less varied, and maybe less of an experience.

For a person who has never said a mean word, or never uttered one teeny lie, I guess it would be great if life were fair because they would get what they deserve. But most people do mean things once in a while. Sometimes we hurt other people's feelings even if we don't mean to, lie, or even wish another person would just drop off the face of the Earth. This is what Wilde is talking about.
