Quote by Oscar Wilde
The great things in life are what they seem to be. And for that reason, strange as it may sound to you, often are very difficult to interpret (understand). Great passion are for the great of souls. Great events can only be seen by people who are on a level with them. We think we can have our visions for nothing. We cannot. Even the finest and most self-sacrificing visions have to paid for. Strangely enough, that is what makes them fine.
Summary
This quote suggests that truly remarkable and significant things in life are often not easily understood or interpreted. Great passion and meaningful events can only be appreciated by individuals who possess the capacity to comprehend their depth and significance. It argues that visions and aspirations, even those that require significant sacrifice or effort, cannot be obtained without some form of cost. Paradoxically, it proposes that the price to be paid for these visions is what ultimately renders them truly valuable and worthwhile.
