In his dramatic work “The Importance

“To be born, or at any rate bred, in
a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt
for the ordinary decencies of family life . . .”
As it shows the needless concern of
the type of the bag Ernest was found in, but which indicate the wealth of the
family to Lady Bracknell. Ernest states that there is no contempt for the
ordinary decencies of family life when you are born in a hand-bag, no matter if
it was large, black leather hand-bag, with handles to it or not.
