The Picture of Dorian Gray

The Picture of Dorian Gray1945



Basil Hallward:
[having seen Dorian's corrupted portrait] But this is monstrous. It's beyond nature, beyond reason. What does it mean?

Dorian Gray:
On the day you finished this painting, I made a wish. Perhaps you would call it a prayer. My wish was granted.

Basil Hallward:
But you told me you had destroyed my painting.

Dorian Gray:
I was wrong. It has destroyed me.

Basil Hallward:
It has the eyes of the Devil!

Dorian Gray:
Each of us has heaven and hell in him.

Basil Hallward:
If this is true... if this is what you've done with your life, it is far worse than anything that's being said of you. Do you know how to pray, Dorian?
