Top rated lines from this movie

The world is yours for a season. It would be tragic if you realized too late as so many others do that there is only one thing in the world worth having, and that is youth.
If only the picture could change, and I could be always what I am now. For that I would give everything. Yes, there's nothing in the whole world I would not give. I would give my soul for that.
Time is jealous of you, Mr. Gray. Don't squander the gold of your days. Live. Let nothing be lost upon you. Be afraid of nothing. There is such a little time that your youth will last and you can never get it back.
I always choose my friends for their good looks and my enemies for their good intellects. A man cannot be too careful in his choice of enemies.
Why was he unhappy? -Perhaps because he felt his youth slipping away from him.
