C: "you don't seem to realise that in married life three is company and two is none."
D:"I hate people who are not serious about meals."

B:"Cecily, who addresses me as her uncle from motives of respect that you could not possibly appreciate, lives at my place in the country under the charge of her admirable government, miss prim."(line 28)
C:"When one is placed in the position of guardian, one has to adopt a very high moral tone on all subjects." (Line 32)
D:"and as a high moral tone can hardly be said to conduce very much to either one's health or one's happiness, in order to get up to town I have always pretended to have a younger brother of the name of Ernest, who lives in the Albany ,and gets into the most dreadful scrapes." (Line 32)
4:the purpose of the cigarette case and the dialogue surrounding it is that

B:Jack Bunduryist? What on earth do you mean by a Bunburyist?
Algernon.I'll reveal to you the meaning of that incomparable expression as soon as you are kind enough to inform me why you are Ernest in town and Jack in the country.
C:Algernon....However,it makes no matter,for,now that I look at the instruction inside,I found that the thing isn't yours after all. Jack. Of course it's mine. [Moving to him.] You have seen me with it a hundred times,...***
D:Jack. I haven't asked you to dine with me anywhere to-night.
