Quotation from: The Picture of Dorian Gray

Written by: Oscar Wilde


"Is it the real Dorian?" cried the original of the portrait,
strolling across to him. "Am I really like that?"


"Yes; you are just like that."


"How wonderful, Basil!"


"At least you are like it in appearance. But it will never alter,"
sighed Hallward. "That is something."


"What a fuss people make about fidelity!" exclaimed Lord Henry.
"Why, even in love it is purely a question for physiology.
It has nothing to do with our own will. Young men want to
be faithful, and are not; old men want to be faithless, and cannot:
that is all one can say."
