Några begrundans- och beundransvärda snippets ur Wildes historia, levererade av den älskvärde karaktären Lord Henry:
"Never marry a woman with straw-coloured hair, Dorian." he said after a few puffs.
"Why, Harry?"
"Because they are so sentimental."
"But I like sentimental people."
"Never marry at all, Dorian. Men marry because they are tired; women, because they are curious: both are disappointed."
"It is not good for one's morals to see bad acting. Besides, I don't suppose you will want your wife to act. So what does it matter if she plays Juliet like a wooden doll? She is very lovely, and if she knows as little about life as she does about acting, she will be a delightful experience."
"Youth! Youth! There is absolutely nothing in the world but youth!"
The Picture of Dorian Gray får fyra självgoda och juvelbeströdda bubblor.

Ack och ve! Bilden på Dorian ska vara animerad, och övergå från den vackre ynglingen till ett monstruöst mansansikte.
