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.

— Lord Henry Wotton (George Sanders)

- Turn your head a little more to the left, Dorian.

- The gods have been good to you, Mr. Gray.

- Why do you say that?

- Because you have the most marvellous youth, and youth is the one thing worth having.

- I don't feel that, Lord Henry.

- No, you don't feel it now, but some day you'll feel it terribly.

- What the gods give, they quickly take away.

- 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.

- As we grow older, our memories are haunted by the exquisite temptations we hadn't the courage to yield to.

- 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.

- Dorian Gray had never heard the praise of folly so eloquently expressed.

- He felt afraid of Lord Henry's ideas and ashamed of himself for being afraid.

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 adore simple pleasures. They're the last refuge of the complex.
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.
