Answer:

Lady Bracknell : "I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone."  

Lady Bracknell says this when she is interviewing Jack as a potential suitor for Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn Fairfax: "If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life."

After hearing the story about Miss Prism losing the handbag with a baby in it. Jack tells the women he must go up to his room for a minute. He asks Gwendolyn to wait for him and this quote is her response.

Jack Worthing: "It is a terrible thing for a man to find out suddenly that all his life he has been speaking nothing but the truth. Can you forgive me?"

Jack apologizes to Gwendolyn for lying about his identity when he realizes that, in fact, he had been telling the truth all along.  

Cecily Cardew: "Oh, I don't think I would care to catch a sensible man. I shouldn't know what to talk to him about."  

Cecily tells this to Algernon after she catches him flirting with her and he tells her that a sensible man could get caught in her good looks.

Algernon Moncrieff: "The truth is rarely pure and never simple. Modern life would be very tedious if it were either, and modern literature a complete impossibility!"

Algernon says this in response to the knowledge that Jack does not actually have a younger brother named Ernest. Jack uses the fictious brother as a way to "escape" his life as a guardian to Cecily and have a little fun.

50 POINTS!!! HELP. The Iliad and The Odyssey can be said to be part history, part legend, and part myth. In just a few sentences
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

read below

Explanation:

(I never read the Iliad but there's a summary of it at the beginning of most copies of the odyssey) The Iliad takes place over the course of a 10 year war between most of all of Greece, and the city of Troy. The war started because the prince of Troy married a Greek kings daughter who was already spoken for, she became known as Helen of Troy. One of the mighty Greek warriors is called Achilles, he is the protagonist. After a very long and pointless siege of the city, the Greeks destroy some of their own boats to make a large wooden horse. Some Greeks hide inside the horse, and the Trojans bring it inside the gate thinking the war is over, and it is a gift. At night the Greeks jump out and let all of the other Greeks into the city. During the intense fighting Achilles is shot in the heal and dies. The city falls and thousands die, then the Greeks leave. The Odyssey takes place over the next 10 years and follows a different king named Odysseus (or Ulysses depending on what version you read) What should've been a 6 week voyage home turned into a 10 year chaotic adventure bringing his three ships the many different islands, home to giant cyclops, evil witches, ship wrecking tides, etc. Upon Odysseus return home, he finds that his kingdom thinks he is long dead, and his wife is taking on new suitors, but is trying to hold off for as long as possible. She challenges all of the suitors to take her husbands bow and shoot an arrow through the rings of 12 axes. None of the other men were able to even string the Bow, however Odysseus did it with ease, and resumed his place on the throne.
