Good-looking skins are all the same, but what does it mean to choose one interesting soul from a million?

Meaning: The beautiful appearance is the same, nothing special, but it is not easy to find a person who is interesting on the inside.

Meaning: Don’t chase people’s appearance too much. When you look at a person, you can’t look at the surface. You must also look at the inside and understand the person’s essence. The inner beauty is the most valuable and the most worthy of cherishing. .

This sentence was said by the British writer Oscar Wilde. The original text is "Too many pretty faces, too few interesting souls." It comes from the novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and later appeared as the title of Owl's book "Pretty skins are the same a thousand times, but interesting souls are only one in a thousand".

Introduction

Remind you that "if there is really something worth winning, it should be respect, not disagreement"; advise you that "you really don't need to change for anyone. You, but you can’t let yourself be worthless”; advise you that “introverts don’t have to envy others’ grandstanding”; expose you that “idleness is not the same as an artistic youth, and life is boring because of the lack of a sense of ritual”;

Tell you "Don't be with someone who consumes you, and don't be a person who consumes others"; reminds you that "there is no boring life at all, only a boring attitude towards life"... and hopes to help you "convert this soon to be... The world conquered by boredom becomes your playground."

So, never face the world with an unkempt appearance. If you are so timid, do you still want the world to be full of smiles for you?
