Quotes 

• [Dorian Gray and Brona Croft have sex together while be photographed] 

  Dorian Gray : I never fucked a dying creature before. Do you feel things more deeply, I wonder. Do you feel pain?

  Brona Croft : Do you?

  Dorian Gray : Find out.

  [as Brona slices her fingernails into Dorian's back] 

• [Dorian Gray guesses what Vanessa Ives is skeptical about while at Ferdinand Lyle's party] 

  Dorian Gray : You do not belong here. Even less than I. You are not frivolous. Your eye is careful and appraising. This is not a careful room, although there is much to appraise. That can divert you for only so long. You do not like it here. You are closed to it. Yet... you're the only woman in this house not wearing gloves. Your hands want to touch, but your head wants to appraise. Your heart is torn between the two. You were skeptical because you thought... this was going to be a wasted evening, but now you're not so sure.

• [Vanessa Ives meets Dorian Gray for the first time while at Ferdinand Lyle's party] 

  Dorian Gray : I couldn't help but notice your skepticism.

  Vanessa Ives : Am I skeptical?

  Dorian Gray : About the room. Rather aggressive in the chinoiserie and geographically capricious to say the least. In this one room, there's Japanese, Siamese, Egyptian, Balinese, and something I take to be last season's panto of Aladdin.

  [the two chuckle together] 

• [Dorian Gray tells Vanessa Ives how he arrived to Ferdinand Lyle's party] 

  Dorian Gray : It was more of a... random invitation.

  Vanessa Ives : Do you get many of those?

  Dorian Gray : Entirely.

  Vanessa Ives : You could say 'no.'

  Dorian Gray : I never say 'no'.
