The Picture of Dorian Gray, Chapter 8. Lord Henry is on his hobby horse again about women and marriage. It’s interesting that Henry equates "conjugal felicity" – a happy marriage – with sin. For he is not a great believer in being happily married – marriage is regularly the subject of his biting epigrams.
