    "There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it."

    It hits the essence of desire: the melancholy of unfulfilled longing and the emptiness after achieving one's wish are both predicaments. It is interesting, provoking eternal thoughts on desire and happiness.

    “Sarcasm is the eulogy of mediocrity to genius.”

    I like this sentence because it reminds me of another one, "How can those climbing the mountain mock the gods descending from it?" Although this sounds a bit pretentious, I think the two sentences are quite similar. The ability of the strong is beyond doubt, but they are always subject to doubt. When we encounter capable people, we might as well put aside our scrutiny and learn more from others.

    "Never love anyone who treats you like you're ordinary."This sentence warns against accepting love that diminishes your uniqueness. Oscar Wilde's sharp wit and paradoxical romanticism highlight the importance of self-worth in relationships, blending cynicism with poetic insight.Such is the unique charm of his language, making this quote a "sobering reminder" of my understanding of relationships, one that never fails to inspire strength every time I reflect on it.

    Among all the memorable quotes, the one that I keep reflecting on repeatedly is ——"Be yourself, because everyone else has already done it." This sentence precisely points out the people-pleasing personality that exists in daily life. It reminds me: Instead of spending a lot of energy on imitation and conformity, it would be better to invest the limited time into the non-replicable "self". Everyone is a unique being, and the countless different selves make up the diversity of this world. In today's society, people are being dragged along by "standard answers", but the audience seats are filled with others, while the stage lights only shine for you alone. The self is the true center that we need to maintain.

    1.My favorite quote, written by Oscar Wilde, is "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."

    2.The reason why I like this quote is that it paints a vivid picture: most people are busy in the world because they have to earn money to make a living. Even though life is tough for many, some people still hold onto their dreams to cheer themselves up.

    “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance”impressed me most. I really agree with this statement because I think we should be ourselves at first then be other identity,then you could gain the ture happiness.The people who love themselves also know the things what they want ,and have a clearly goal.

    We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars ", that is," we all live in the gutter, but there are still people looking up at the stars ". With strong contrast and profound spiritual core, this sentence has been deeply imprinted in my mind.

    1. My favorite quote is “Don’t be discouraged,even if you lose everything,tomorrow will still be in your hands.”
    2. This quote gives me a lot of motivation. Even when facing significant difficulties, time is impartial.Tomorrow will still arrive, remaining firmly in our own hands as a brand new beginning. It encourages me during times when I feel disappointed with life.It also helps me accept losses in life, recognize my own agency over life,let me stay strong and keep moving forward,growing like a sunflower turning toward the sun.

    Loving yourself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

    Most of us care about what others think. Few live for themselves. Mothers live for their children, fathers for their families, and we for our achievements. Learning to love ourselves is a compulsory course throughout our lives. We should accept failure calmly, embrace our shortcomings, and making peace with ourselves is the most romantic thing.

    The quote "Irony is a mirror in which the viewer sees everyone's face, but only himself."

    Wilde sharply pointed out the universality of self-blind spots in human nature. People are willing to criticize others, but it is difficult to reflect on themselves. This sentence also hints at the limitations of social criticism - irony may be reduced to another kind of hypocrisy.
