You see, Phipps,
fashion is what one wears oneself.
:04:11
What is unfashionable...
:04:14
-.. is what other people wear.
- Yes, my lord.
:04:17
Other people are quite dreadful.
:04:19
The only possible society is oneself.
:04:22
To love oneself...
:04:25
.. is the beginning of a lifelong romance.
:04:29
Yes, my lord.
:04:41
Their Graces,
the Duke and Duchess of Berwick.
:04:49
Lord Windermere.
:04:53
Countess Basildon.
:04:55
.. and, it is widely agreed,
the last truly decent man in London.
:05:00
That you're a very personable man
with a most attractive personality,...
:05:05
.. and you have brought into British politics
an honesty and integrity...
:05:09
A nobler atmosphere, a finer attitude...
:05:12
And higher ideals.
:05:14
One mustn't believe everything
one reads in the newspapers.
:05:18
Yes, in the old days we had the rack.
Nowadays we have the press.
:05:22
Your own newspaper being
the notable exception, Sir Edward.
:05:26
Where truth shines out like a beacon
and lies run vainly for the shadows.
:05:31
Bravo, Lady Chiltern!
:05:33
Do I detect in your conversation
a lyricism...
:05:36
.. not uncommon in your husband's
excellent speeches?
:05:40
If you are suggesting that my position
owes anything to my wife,...
:05:44
.. you are mistaken.
It owes everything to my wife.
:05:47
I demand that you make it known!
Without her, I am entirely unexceptional.
:05:52
And without her love,...
:05:55
.. I'm nothing.
:05:59
All I know is, a serious shake-up
in the government looks inevitable now.
