MRS. ALLONBY. Don’t find yourself longing for a London dinner-
party?
HESTER. I dislike London dinner-parties.
MRS. ALLONBY. I adore them. The clever people never listen, and
the stupid people never talk.
HESTER. I think the stupid people talk a great deal.
MRS. ALLONBY. Ah, I never listen.from Oscar Wilde’s A Woman of No Importance
