Oscar Wilde
I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.
Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854 – 1900) an Irish author, playwright and poet.
Although I have not been there, based on the features of three photos that you posted and what I found on internet, I am very self-confident to say that it is Lake Vidraru in Romania. I think I have got 10/10 marks for this time :D. It is an interesting game. I know new places in the world through this game. I will put it in my travel list. About Oscar Wilde, I like his writing style. But, until now I cannot find any reason to feel sympathy for Dorian and I think he could not dominate his emotions and he lost his life because of them. Because I don't like Dorian, it also means I don't like this quote :-(
This is reservoir on the river Belaya in Russia, south part of Ural mountains. :) Sorry :)
Regarding quote, I prefer to think about this phrase without thinking about Dorian, but as a motivation to dominate some of my emotions. Sometimes, emotions appear not in a right place, not those which we need etc., when we are overwhelmed by emotions, we can't think clearly and can make a lot of mistakes.
Wow, I had two eggs for one week, not so bad and not so sad. I shall use them to make a dish for breakfast tomorrow! You don't need to say sorry :D, I myself have to say thank you. Although I guess wrong but I know new places in the world :D, and I have already made a plan to go Romania by bus next July. I have traveled some places in the south and southwest of Europe, but not in the center of Europe, except one week for my work in Vienna last year, but it was a very boring week :(. So, I am in an exciting mood now and waiting for July coming. :D
Regarding the quote, I think it is difficult to understand and do it well. If we want to use our emotions successfully, we must understand them thoroughly, and the best way is to live fully with them, not to dominate them, and of course mistakes will visit us :D. But, we gain experiences for our life in order not to make mistakes next times. Anyway, we will make some mistakes in our life :D, even serious mistakes. To dominate totally our emotions to go far away from mistakes, it is not an easy work, we will suffer a lot, even be broken. I think the most important thing is not mistake, the most important thing is that we bear the full responsibility for our act and if we are wrong we should correct it as soon as possible and try to limit it if we can. We should also believe that there are many good and lovely people around us forgiving and helping us correct our mistake. And, we should also do the same thing for other people when they make mistakes to ourselves. So, our life becomes easier and more beautiful. ----------------------------------------------------------- (A joke before going to bed Dorian Gray: Ratty, but why didn't you feel sympathy for me? Waterrat: I just said "until now I cannot find any reason to feel sympathy for you", it doesn't mean forever, maybe tonight I will meet Oscar in my dream and ask him the reasons leading him to create your life as such, when I understand, maybe I shall like some of your characters :D. Goodbye and goodnight!)
Thank you very much for reading it. I feel a bit surprised when there is someone, except the blogger, spending time reading it. I hope that there are not so many wrong words and grammar errors in my comment. Indeed, I have just given comments to improve my English, with a funny method :-). I do not think seriously about the meaning of the quote. To me, quotes are just quotes that should be used as preferences, not as rules for life.
(In a whisper: Mrs/Ms/Mr Anonymous, however, you made me a bit scared. It reminds me to be careful when I write something because there are at least two people reading my comments :D. A good way to master my writing skill! :-). Thank you in advance. Goodbye!)
For sure Water Rat, on such a website your writing might be seen by a large number of people worldwide. But to be honest, your english is good so don't be too scared!
