Does anybody remember the exact quote from the play that goes something like "Loosing one parent is unfortunate, loosing both is foolish"? I can't remember it correctly.

Very strangely, I read The Importance Of Being Earnest recently, and happened to copy that quote down. It goes:
"Losing one parent is a misfortune; but losing both parents is plain carelessness."
thanks a lot!
it is actually 'to lose one parent Mr Worthing may be considered misfortunate, to lose both looks simply careless' I am Lady B in TIOBE
