Jack Worthing Thank you, Lady Bracknell, I prefer standing. Lady Bracknell pencil and notebook in hand I feel bound to tell you that you are not down on my list of eligible young men, although I have the same list as the dear Duchess of Bolton has. We work together, in fact. However, I am quite ready to enter your name, should your manners be what a really affectionate mother requires. Do you smoke Jack Worthing Well, yes, I must admit I smoke. Lady Bracknell I am glad to hear it. A man should always have an occupation of some kind. There are far too many idle men in London as it is. How old are you Jack Worthing Twenty-nine.

Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound.

Jack Worthing I have a country house with some land, of course, attached to it, about fifteen hundred acres, I believe; but I don’t depend on that for my real income. In fact, as far as I can make out, the poachers are the only people who make anything out of it. Lady Bracknell A country house How many bedrooms Well, that point can be cleared up afterwards. You have a town house, I hope A girl with a simple, unspoiled nature, like Gwendolen, could hardly be expected to reside in the country. 26.The relationship between Lady Bracknell and Gwendolen is that of ______.
