This is a special quote because not only is it our first author quote but it's also the first user submitted! Congrats to @Fate for being selected by the RNG!Originally Posted by Oscar Wilde
So, without further ado, let's get to my review of the quote. So, I'll start off by saying, I love Oscar Wilde. He's like the Corey of English class! But, that aside, the man was infamous in my tenth grade English class for attacking human nature itself and this quote is no exception to that trope. It's actually a pretty good attack to since it hits home in the whole selfish desires category we all have. Through my years of observing the human race, one of the things I've concluded is that people don't appreciate what they have. They whine and whine until they get what they want, and then once they have it, they desire something else so the cycle repeats. It just shows how selfish we are as a raise and I think that's important to note since not everyone has the leisure to actually perform this cycle. Either way, I think it's a very profound quote, as it's deep enough to provoke thought but simple enough to be interpreted easily, so I'm giving it an 8.5/10.
