I was close by and came in for a moment. I found this old song in your piano bench. It's charming. So is the face that my uncle sketched on it.

Quote context

[...]

- He would examine with minute care the hideous lines that scarred the wrinkling forehead or crawled around the heavy sensual mouth, wondering which were more horrible: the signs of sin or the signs of age.

- He found reasons to justify his actions. He told himself that man was a being with myriad lives and myriad sensations. To live a simple, sincere, honest life was hardly to live at all.

- Was insincerity such a terrible thing? Dorian thought not. It was merely a method by which we could multiply our personalities.

- Yet, there was one person towards whom he found it difficult to be insincere. It was Basil Hallward's niece, Gladys, who had loved him since she was a child.

- Goodbye, little yellow bird, I'd rather brave the cold on a leafless tree than a prisoner be in a cage of gold

- I was close by and came in for a moment. I found this old song in your piano bench. It's charming. So is the face that my uncle sketched on it.

- He did do it, didn't he? I know his style so well.

- Did she sing this song? Who is she? Do tell me about her.

- She died many years ago, when you were only a little girl.

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.

As I grow old, this picture will remain always young. If it were only the other way. If it were I who was always to be young and the picture that was to grow old.

What did the music mean to you? -I don't know. It is full of emotion. But it's not happy. -No, it's not happy.
