How to correctly import sage modules from python mode

I am writing a module for sage, and I want to import some sage objects cleanly, without calling the heavy import sage.all. But without it, I often get errors.

$ sage -python
Python 3.7.3 (default, May 21 2020, 07:31:27) 
[GCC 9.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from sage.rings.integer import Integer
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "sage/rings/rational.pxd", line 8, in init sage.rings.integer (build/cythonized/sage/rings/integer.c:53202)

  File "sage/rings/complex_double.pyx", line 96, in init sage.rings.complex_double (build/cythonized/sage/rings/complex_double.c:24325)
ImportError: cannot import name complex_number
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.rings.integer import Integer
>>> 
$ sage

This is just an example.
