今天开始看 The Canterville Ghost

看完了 是一个小小的鬼故事。 America has no ruins or curiosities.

The model millionaire一个小的鸡汤故事。 Unless one is wealthy there is no use i. being a charming fellow. Romance is the privilege of the rich, not the profession of the unemployed. The poor should be practical and prosaic. It is better to have a permanent income than to be fascinating.

what you call rags I call romance, what seems poverty to you is picturesqueness to me.

看The young King
The burden of this world is too great for one man to bear, and the world's sorrow too heavy for one heart to suffer.

To toil for a master is bitter, but to have no masters to toil for is more bitter still.

The secrets of art are best learned in secret, and that Beauty, like Wisdom, loves the lonely worshipper.

The Happy Prince
There is no Mystery so great as Misery.

The Devoted Friend
Every good storyteller nowadays starts with the end, and then goes on to the beginning, and concludes with the middle.

The very essence of romance is its uncertainty.

In married life, three is company and two is none.

Relations are simply a tedious pack of people, who have not got the remotest knowedge of how to live, nor the smallest instinct about when to die. 亲戚惹人嫌。

Relations are a sort of aggravated form of the public.

All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That is his. 老婆最后都跟丈母娘一样可恶 (他为什么这么恨亲戚和丈母娘？)
