This quote by Oscar Wilde really stuck out to me when I was looking for quotes about hope. This quote stuck out to me because it says that the rich aren't better than the poor, males aren't better that females, and old aren't better than young. When this quote says, "we are ALL in the gutter..." (Wilde), it means that we are all in the same and equal place. Wilde follows that up by saying, "...but some of us are looking for stars" (Wilde), which explains why we are all in different positions in life with more or less things than our neighbors and friends. Overall, this quote is saying that what truly separates all of us and makes us who we are is how we hope and dream. Just after Presidents Day weekend, this quote is perfect because all the presidents are the same as us, but with their hopes and dreams, they have gotten to where they are today.
