「그럼 그 잘못을 다시 저지르세요.」 그는 진지한 목소리로 말했다. 「다시 젊어지려면 옛날의 잘못을 반복하는 수밖에 없어요.」

「그럴지 몰라요.」 헨리 경이 말을 이었다. 「하지만 그게 삶의 위대한 비밀 가운데 하나랍니다. 요즘은 많은 사람들이 살며시 다가오는 섬뜩한 상식 때문에 죽음을 당해요. 그리고 사람은 유일하게 자신이 저지른 잘못만은 절대 후회하지 않는 법이죠. 그리고 나중에 그걸 깨닫기는 하는데, 그땐 이미 때가 늦었지요.」

무모한 열정에 모든 것을 포기하는 위험을 마다 않은 어느 아름다운 여인. 무시무시하고 비열한 범죄에 의해 중단된 단 몇 주 동안의 거칠 것이 없었던 행복. 여러 달 동안의 숨죽인 고뇌. 그리고 고통 속에 태어난 아이. 죽음이 낚아채 간 어머니의 목숨. 사랑이라고는 손톱만큼도 없는 늙은 남자의 폭정에 맡겨져 혼자만의 고독 속에 남은 소년. 그렇다.

"Yes," he continued, "that is one of the great secrets of life. Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping common sense, and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one‘s mistakes."

He played with the idea and grew wilful; tossed it into the air and transformed it; let it escape and recaptured it; made it iridescent with fancy and winged it with paradox. The praise of folly, as he went on, soared into a philosophy, and philosophy herself became young, and catching the mad music of pleasure, wearing, one might fancy, her wine-stained robe and wreath of ivy, danced like a Bacchante over the hills of life, and mocked the slow Silenus for being sober. Facts fled before her like frightened forest things. Her white feet trod the huge press at which wise Omar sits, till the seething grape-juice rose round her bare limbs in waves of purple bubbles, or crawled in red foam over the vat‘s black, dripping, sloping sides. It was an extraordinary improvisation.

*praise of folly: the phrase suggests the satire The Praise of Folly (1511), by the Dutch humanist Erasmus (c.1467-1536).
*Bacchante... Silenus: a priestess of Bacchus, the god of wine and revelry, and the fat and jolly old man, always intoxicated, who attended Bacchus.
*wise Omar: Omar Khayyám (1048-1131), Persian astronomer, mathematician, and poet, known to the nineteenth-century English-speaking world for The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám, a sequence of quatrains, translated and published anonymously in 1859 by English writer Edward FitzGerald (1809-83). FitzGerald‘s translation was popularized by Pre-Raphaelite poets such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-82) and Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837-1909) in the 1860s.

Lord Henry looked at him. Yes...

Lord Henry looked at him. Yes, he was certainly wonderfully handsome, with his finely curved scarlet lips, his frank blue eyes, his crisp gold hair. There was something in his face that made one trust him at once. All the candour of youth was there, as well as all youth‘s passionate purity. One felt that he had kept himself unspotted from the world. No wonder Basil Hallward worshipped him.

"Because to influence a person is to give him one‘s own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtues are not real to him. His sins, if there are such things as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of some one else‘s music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him. The aim of life is self-development. To realize one‘s nature perfectly--that is what each of us is here for.

"Always! That is a dreadful word. It makes me shudder when I hear it. Women are so fond of using it. They spoil every romance by trying to make it last for ever. It is a meaningless word, too. The only difference between a caprice and a lifelong passion is that the caprice lasts a little longer."

In politics he was a Tory, except when the Tories were in office, during which period he roundly abused them for being a pack of Radicals. He was a hero to his valet, who bullied him, and a terror to most of his relations, whom he bullied in turn. Only England could have produced him, and he always said that the country was going to the dogs. His principles were out of date, but there was a good deal to be said for his prejudices.

어느 한 사람이 자신은 좋아하지도 않으면서 어떤 유용한 물건을 만들었다면 우리는 그를 용서할 수 있다. 쓸모없는 것을 만들었을 때 그에 대한 유일한 변명은 그것을 지독하게 좋아한다고 말하는 것이다.
