The best option is letter B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."
Explanation:
When quoting what someone said, even if it is a character in a play or a story, we must use quotation marks. Notice that they will separate the character's words from the words of the person who is quoting. Also, if a period or a comma must appear, they should come inside the quotation marks, not outside. Therefore, letter B is the best option because it follows those instructions.
B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

The author’s loved one will always remain beautiful in the lines of this poem
Rukmani's life is filled with struggle, yet she remains resolutely optimistic about her future. Married off to a poor rice farmer at the age of 12, Rukmani struggles through loneliness, infertility, starvation, and great loss with persevering optimism. The novel's title, Nectar in a Sieve, refers to nectar, a sweet liquid, and a sieve, a device with meshes that allows liquid to pass through while trapping solids in the device. The title suggests Rukmani's ability to appreciate the short, sweet moments in life before they disappear. During the Deepavali celebration in Chapter 10, for example, Rukmani's family struggles to eat, yet she doles out precious pennies for the children to buy fireworks because "it is only once ... a memory." Similarly, at the end of the novel when she and Nathan have been saving to return to the village, she feels overcome with happiness while at the market with Puli. She buys fried pancakes instead of plain rice cakes and wooden toys for the children: "Well, if we are extravagant it is only once." No matter what suffering comes Rukmani's way, she maintains optimism that life can only get better. She tells Kenny, "Want is our companion from birth to death." Rather than wallow in what's lacking, Rukmani always chooses to look ahead: to the next meal, the next year, or the next harvest.
