The Picture of Dorian Gray — Page 6
It is a silly habit, I dare say, but somehow it seems to bring a great deal of romance into one's life.
그것은 어리석은 습관이라고 감히 말할 수 있지만, 어쩐지 그것이 삶에 많은 낭만을 가져다주는 것 같습니다.
I suppose you think me awfully foolish about it?"
당신은 제가 그것에 대해 몹시 어리석다고 생각하시겠죠?"
"Not at all," answered Lord Henry, "not at all, my dear Basil.
"전혀요," 헨리 경이 대답했습니다, "전혀 그렇지 않아요, 친애하는 바질.
You seem to forget that I am married, and the one charm of marriage is that it makes a life of deception absolutely necessary for both parties.
당신은 내가 결혼했다는 사실을 잊은 것 같군요, 그리고 결혼의 유일한 매력은 그것이 양쪽 모두에게 기만의 삶을 절대적으로 필요하게 만든다는 것입니다.
I never know where my wife is, and my wife never knows what I am doing.
저는 제 아내가 어디 있는지 전혀 모르고, 제 아내는 제가 무엇을 하는지 전혀 모릅니다.
When we meet—we do meet occasionally, when we dine out together, or go down to the Duke's—we tell each other the most absurd stories with the most serious faces.
우리가 만날 때—우리는 가끔 만나기도 하는데, 함께 외식을 하거나 공작의 저택에 갈 때—우리는 서로에게 가장 진지한 표정으로 가장 터무니없는 이야기를 합니다.
My wife is very good at it—much better, in fact, than I am.
제 아내는 그것을 매우 잘 합니다—사실, 저보다 훨씬 더 잘하죠.
She never gets confused over her dates, and I always do.
그녀는 날짜에 대해 절대 혼동하지 않지만, 저는 항상 혼동합니다.
But when she does find me out, she makes no row at all.
하지만 그녀가 저의 거짓말을 알아챌 때도, 그녀는 전혀 소란을 피우지 않습니다.
I sometimes wish she would; but she merely laughs at me."
저는 가끔 그녀가 그랬으면 하고 바라지만, 그녀는 그저 저를 비웃을 뿐입니다."
"I hate the way you talk about your married life, Harry," said Basil Hallward, strolling towards the door that led into the garden.
"해리, 당신이 결혼 생활에 대해 말하는 방식이 싫어요," 바질 홀워드가 정원으로 이어지는 문을 향해 거닐며 말했습니다.
"I believe that you are really a very good husband, but that you are thoroughly ashamed of your own virtues.
"저는 당신이 실제로는 매우 좋은 남편이지만, 자신의 미덕을 철저히 부끄러워한다고 생각합니다.
You are an extraordinary fellow.
당신은 특별한 사람이에요.
You never say a moral thing, and you never do a wrong thing.
당신은 결코 도덕적인 말을 하지 않지만, 결코 잘못된 행동도 하지 않습니다.
Your cynicism is simply a pose.
당신의 냉소주의는 단순한 포즈에 불과합니다.
