Quote context

- To the opera?

- Yes, sir. Is there any message, sir?

- No. No, I'll come by in the morning.

- But in the morning, Dorian no longer wanted the consolation of his friend, nor his reproaches.

- Yes, I have, thank you.

- I'm famished. You don't mind if I have a bite while we talk?

- Of course not.

- You went to the opera while Sibyl Vane was lying dead in some sordid lodging?

- What is past is past.

- You call yesterday the past?

- It's only shallow people who require years to get rid of an emotion. A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure.

- Something has changed you completely, Dorian.

- You look exactly the same.
