"Only when one is young," she answered. "When an old woman like myself blushes, it is a very bad sign. Ah! Lord Henry, I wish you would tell me how to become young again."

"A great many, I fear," she cried.
"Then commit them over again," he said gravely. "To get back one’s youth, one has merely to repeat one’s follies."
