Lady Bracknell:
I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delecate, exotic fruit. Touch it, and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did it would prove a serious threat to the upper classes, and probably lead ot acts of violence in Grosvenor Square.

I do not approve of anything that tampers
00:00:03.252 --> 00:00:05.254
with natural ignorance
00:00:05.254 --> 00:00:08.967
Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit
00:00:08.967 --> 00:00:11.928
Touch it and the bloom is gone
00:00:11.928 --> 00:00:14.999
The whole theory of modern education
00:00:14.999 --> 00:00:15.724
is radically unsound
00:00:15.724 --> 00:00:17.351
Fortunately in England at any rate
00:00:17.351 --> 00:00:19.561
education produces no effect whatsoever
00:00:19.561 --> 00:00:21.521
If it did it would prove a serious danger
00:00:21.521 --> 00:00:23.315
to the upper classes and probably lead
00:00:23.315 --> 00:00:26.443
