" Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. "
- Oscar Wilde
This phrase is about each of our individuality and uniqueness. We're all different, even if we're identical twins. The quote ends with the phrase "everyone else is already taken." This serves as a reminder that we shouldn't try too hard to be "exactly like" someone else because it is someone else's duty.
To act naturally you really want to know what your identity is. You need to know what you need, a big motivator for you, and what you have faith in. Without these things, you have vacant and void places that need something to fill them. Rather than demonstrating themselves on an individual's praiseworthy appearance, they decide to imitate the individual all in all. Also, as I would see it, this is the thing that the statement alerts against.
The greatest power lies in being yourself.
