Very many nice lines in the book. Just a few below.
Relations are simply a tedious pack of people, who haven’t got the remotest knowledge of how to live, nor the smallest instinct about when to die.
All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That’s his.
I am sick to death of cleverness. Everybody is clever nowadays. You can’t go anywhere without meeting clever people. The thing has become an absolute public nuisance. I wish to goodness we had a few fools left.

I mean this isn't a showstopping biting satire or whatever but it was very funny. Just delightful and silly to read.

A quick silly little play that was recommended to me by David’s friend. Will be watching the movie soon!
This play is just as much fun to read as it is to watch!

I have stubbornly convinced myself I do not enjoy reading plays back in high school and have avoided them since. What a mistake! This was laugh out loud funny, I found myself chuckling multiple times. Wilde is , as always, timeless, in any format.
I am looking forward to trying more plays now!

I was really surprised by how much I liked this! I had heard of this particular play's humor but it still surprised me. I found myself laughing out loud along the crowd. I must admit being quite confused at times but overall really enjoyed this!
