"Tell me, if there was someone who lived forever without growing old, what would she wish for?" It's a question that just opens up so many windows to characterization and conceptualizes a major theme all in one sentence. Other stories about immortality that don't explore something similar are just wasting a prime opportunity.

The words applied to men and women. They also applied to love as well as wealth and career.

There will be lots of pain and troubles. There will be something we don't want happening in our lives. There will be full of regrets. When we turn over and look back to the past, finally, we realize how much we have already missed… Even when we finally wake up and realize it, there is no way to get back what we have lost, no matter how regretful we are… We have so many reasons and lots of sighs. The most ironic thing is… when we are right in the middle of a beautiful life we long for, we never cherish it, until it fades away… Life is full of choices, gains and losses… We kept getting things, but also losing those we had. You get this, so you lose that… When you lose what you had, you are still enjoying the happiness of getting the new.

The world was always unfair" "He who has no desire has no weakness. He who desires is easy to be controlled!" "A man of great ambition does not bother about trifles" "One who is weakhearted won't stand firmly on the ground of this world ruled by strength. A weakhearted and irresolute leader will never achieve greatness! Not to mention lead his men to a stronger and better future" "The sufferings might be an inspiring story of those who eventually made a success. They would keep talking about it with satisfaction. It is definitely enjoyable to recollect the poor old days. However, for those who have suffered greatly but eventually failed, misery means misery, and nightmare means nightmare. It is painful and unbearable to remember!" "Life is like a show. We must act well! Yet a show is always from the real life, then why should I act?" "Sometimes you have to fight for happiness…Happiness is limited… Everybody wants it. One has to fight for it. On the way to happiness… we can't waste our time in dignity and courtesy. They are obstructions that stop us from happiness… After all, you get it or you don't get it. That's the only possible ways…Happiness is all the same in all men's eyes… You get it, then you get happiness. I get it, then I get happiness…" "Happiness never drops into your hands… You have fight for it…" "For a man, power was the most attractive thing.

Even if I don't want to do it, even if I don't dare to do it, fate will drive me toward it. It pushes me over and makes me do it… Destiny will force me back to the path that I am destined to step on eventually…It will eventually show me a fork in the road, and make me choose!" "Different people have different goals. You are not them. How do you know they are not happy?" "Fate doesn't bring people good luck or misfortune. When somebody said or do something, there is no turning back. Regret is always late. Arrogance comes from ignorance." ""There is nothing impossible in the world. There are only things that you haven't thought of, but nothing is sure not to happen." "Life is cruel. You are still you, but I am never you" "Too much is as bad as too little. Asking too much sometimes brings you a great loss." "Destiny was something one should follow. Everybody had a destiny, but people fulfilled their destiny in different ways. One could be supported by destiny, obey the destiny, fight against destiny, but nobody could destroy destiny. It was not something a man could choose. The only thing a man could do was to accept it or not!" "If somebody can bear the pain, they can save the relationship. If not, nobody gets anything." "There is something we should never do. Everything has a bottom line. If you go extreme, things will get extremely back on you." "It is your right to love somebody, but it doesn't make you more important than anybody.
