Quote context

[...]

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

- Mystic?

- I don't know how to explain it, but whenever Dorian poses for me, it seems as if a power outside myself were guiding my hand.

- It's as if the painting had a life of its own, independent of me.

- That's why I'm not going to exhibit it.

- It belongs rightfully to Dorian Gray, and I shall give it to him.

- I want to meet this extraordinary young man. I think we shall be friends.

- I like persons better than principles and persons with no principles better than anything else in the world.

- Now I remember.

- Remember what, Harry?

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.
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.
Know. Do I know you? Before I could answer that, I should have to see your soul.
I wish you would tell me how to become young again. -Can you remember any great errors that you committed in your early days? -A great many, I fear. -Then commit them over again. To regain one's youth, one has merely to repeat one's follies.
