Quote context

[...]

- For the moment you must put it out of your mind, you must come and dine with me. And afterwards we'll look in at the opera. It's Don Giovanni. Everybody'll be there, and you can come to my sister's box.

- So I have murdered Sibyl Vane. As surely as if I'd cut her throat.

- I can't see why you should blame yourself. I suppose you had a quarrel and she foolishly thought she'd lost you. But no woman destroys herself who isn't already unbalanced.

- Where do you keep your sherry?

- If you'd married this girl, you would've been wretched, and so in time would she have been. I assure you, the whole thing would have been an absolute failure.

- I remember your saying once there's a fatality about good resolutions, they're always made too late. Mine certainly were.

- You should look upon this tragedy as an episode in the wonderful spectacle of life.

- What is it that has really happened? Someone has killed herself for love of you. I wish that I'd had such an experience.

- The women who have admired me, and there have been some, have insisted on living on long after I have ceased to care for them or they to care for me. They've become stout and tedious. And when I meet them, they go in at once for reminiscences.

- That awful memory of woman. Drink this, it'll make you feel better.

- I found myself sitting next to such a woman the other night at diner.

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.

She's a wonderful woman. When her third husband died, her hair turned quite gold from grief.

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