Don’t tell me that you have exhausted life. When a man says that one knows that life has exhausted him.
– Oscar Wilde
The Picture of Dorian Gray, Chapter 15. Lady Narborough says this to Dorian when he describes life as a great disappointment. She adds: "Lord Henry is very wicked, and I sometimes wish that I had been; but you are made to be good – you look so good." Lady Narborough is a woman who judges only by appearances. So for people like her as long as Dorian continues to look good his morals won’t be questioned. Beautiful people can’t possibly be bad, now can they?
