so on. He may even conceived of the proper motive which
should energize back of his great deed:
The service and the loyalty I owe,
In doing it, pays itself.

One piece of the dialogue is spoken by Jack, where he says, “Gwendolyn, I must get christened at once—I mean, we must get married at once.” Wilde shows how society would tend to care about what was on the outside of a person, such as their name or wealth, rather than their character.
Another such example of this situation is when Algernon is speaking to Cecily in regards to their engagement. Cecily knows Algernon to be Jack’s brother, Ernest, and is in love with the name the same as Gwendolyn. Algernon tries to inquire, in .....

The first significant relationship presented in the novel is that between PS and his Aunt Lila and Uncle George. PS sees himself solely as Lila and George’s child and this perception that he has on himself directly influences the nature of his relationship with them. Being a six year old child yet to develop his own personal sense of identity, PS trusts implicitly in Lila and George and believes, in his innocent naive way, that they will always do what is best for him. This is not so much carelessness on PS’s part, as an ignorance of any other type of upbringing and love than that administered to him by Lila and Georg .....
