Quotation from: The Picture of Dorian Gray

Written by: Oscar Wilde


"Of course it is true, Lord Henry. If we women did not love you for
your defects, where would you all be? Not one of you would ever be married.
You would be a set of unfortunate bachelors. Not, however, that that
would alter you much. Nowadays all the married men live like bachelors,
and all the bachelors like married men."


"Fin de siecle," murmured Lord Henry.


"Fin du globe," answered his hostess.
