Funny Quotes from "A Woman of No Importance"

Assalamualaikum,

just found a very nice e-book of Oscar Wilde's "The Woman of No Importance. Here some funny, yet insightful quotes from it:

LADY STUTFIELD. Yes; men persecute us dreadfully, don't they?
MRS. ALLONBY. Persecute us? I wish they did.
LADY HUNSTANTON. My dear!
MRS. ALLONBY. The annoying thing is that the wretches can be perfectly happy without us. That is why I think it is every woman's duty never to leave them alone for a single moment, exceptduring this short breathing space after dinner; without which Ibelieve we poor women would be absolutely worn to shadows.

LADY STUTFIELD. It seems to me that it is we who are always trying to escape from them. Men are so very, very heartless. They know their power and use it.

MRS. ALLONBY. I don't think that we should ever be spoken of asother people's property. All men are married women's property.That is the only true definition of what married women's property really is. But we don't belong to any one.

Hahaha...what do you think, Mr. A? *grin wickedly*

Best,
Adilla
