"wondering sometimes which were the more horrible, the signs of sin or the singns of age"
- relectura 2023
Y en realidad, todo el libro le parecía contener la historia de su propia vida, escrita antes de que hubiera vivido.
La manera en la que WIlde se burlaba de las clases superior es uff chef kiss, la verdad es que tengo mucho pero poco que decir, cuando se trata de mis libros favs mi mente siempre me dice mm no se como expresarlo, solo que quede como registro que me gusta mucho más que las veces anteriores que lo lei, y pude notar cosas que había pasado por alto (todas las referencias hoosexuales de Brasil hacia Dorian).
En sus tratos con el hombre, el Destino nunca cancelaba sus cuentas.

“You and I are what we are, and will be what we will be. As for being poisoned by a book, there is no such thing as that…the books that the world calls immoral are books that snow the world its own shame” (206)
“The wonderful beauty that had so fascinated Basil Hallward, and many others besides him seemed never to leave [Dorian]. Even those who had heard the most evil things against him, and from time to time strange rumors about his mode of life crept through London and became the chatter of the clubs, could not believe anything to his dishonour when they saw him. He had the look of one who had kept himself unspotted from the world” (124)
“All art is at once surface and symbol.
Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril.
Those who read the symbol do so at their peril” (4)
