Quote context

[...]

- It doesn't sound foolish to me at all.

- You forget that I am married and that the one charm of marriage is that it makes a life of deception absolutely necessary to both parties.

- I believe you are really a very good husband, Harry, but that you are thoroughly ashamed of your own virtues.

- Your cynicism is simply a pose.

- Being natural is simply a pose and the most irritating pose I know.

- I can believe anything provided that it is quite incredible.

- I'm afraid this will seem so.

- There is something I can't quite understand. Something mystic about it.

- Mystic?

Top rated lines from this movie

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.
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.
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.
You oughtn't to express such a wish in the presence of that cat, Dorian. It's one of the 73 great gods of Egypt and is quite capable of granting your wish.
Punctuality is the thief of time, Harry says.
