JACK:
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.
ALGERNON:
We have.
JACK:
I should extremely like to meet them. What do they talk about?
ALGERNON:
The fools? Oh! about the clever people, of course.
JACK:
What fools!
