What a fuss people make about fidelity! Why, even in love it is purely a question for physiology. It has nothing to do with our own will. Young men want to be faithful, and are not; old men want to be faithless, and cannot: that is all one can say.

Lord Henry Wotton, in Chapter Two, The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde
