Lines I appreciated from this book: - "I have grown to love secrecy. It seems to be the one thing that can make modern life mysterious or marvellous to us. The commonest thing is delightful if one only hides it. When I leave town now I never tell my people where I am going. If I did, I would lose all my pleasure. It is a silly habit, i dare say, but somehow it seems to bring a great deal of romance into one's life." (pg. 6, Basil Hallward) - Had he gone to his aunt's, he would have been sure to meet Lord Goodbody there, and the whole conversation would have been about the feeding of the poor, and the necessity for model lodging houses. Each class would have preached the importance of those virtues, for whose exercise there was no necessity in their own lives. The rich would have spoken on the value of thrift, and the idle grown eloquent over the dignity of labour. (pg. 15) - "I hate offices, and I hate clerks ... But you are quite right. I have chosen my own life." (pg. 57, James Vane) - Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them. (pg. 60) - "I once wore nothing but violets all through one season, as a form of artistic mourning for a romance that would not die. Ultimately, however, it did die. I forget what killed it. I think it was her proposing to sacrifice the whole world for me. That is always a dreadful moment. It fills one with the terror of eternity. ... The one charm of the past is that it is the past." (pg. 89, Lord Henry)
