- 1. Lord Goring
[Enterlord goring. Thirty-four, but always says he is younger. A
well-bred, expressionless face. He is clever, but would not like to
be thought so. A flawless dandy, he would be annoyed if he were
considered romantic. He plays with life, and is on perfectly good
terms with the world. He is fond of being misunderstood. It gives
him a post of vantage.]
2. There is some flaw in each one of us. [Strolls to the
fireplace and looks at himself in the glass.] My father tells me
that even I have faults. Perhaps I have. I dont know.

3. Lord goring. [Rising.] No, Lady Chiltern, I am not a Pessimist.
Indeed I am not sure that I quite know what Pessimism really means.
All I do know is that life cannot be understood without much
charity, cannot be lived without much charity. It is love, and not
German philosophy, that is the true explanation of this world,
whatever may be the explanation of the next. And if you are ever in
trouble, Lady Chiltern, trust me absolutely, and I will help you in
every way I can. If you ever want me, come to me for my assistance,
and you shall have it. Come at once to me.

7. lord goring. [Enthusiastically.] How sweet of you to say so! . .
. And it is only fair to tell you frankly that I am fearfully
extravagant.
8. lord goring. [Pulls out his watch, inspects it, and rings the
bell.] It is a great nuisance. I cant find any one in this house to
talk to. And I am full of interesting information.

9. lord goring. Ah! I prefer a gentlemanly fool any day. There is
more to be said for stupidity than people imagine. Personally I
have a great admiration for stupidity. It is a sort of
fellow-feeling, I suppose.
10. lord goring. But I love Mabel. No other woman has any place in
my life.
