“Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault. Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are the cultivated. For these there is hope. They are the elect to whom beautiful things mean only Beauty. There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all.”

this book makes me love philosophy ( )

I was expecting to read something complex and difficult to understand and utterly boring, like a couple of classic books I've previously read. I'm glad to say I was utterly wrong. I'm pleasantly surprised with this book. I am, really. It felt pretty much like reading one of Anne Rice's books. And the best part of it is that you can either read it as it is, an interesting, elegant fiction, or like a study about the human behavior. ( )

Basil Hallward painted a beautiful portrait.He painted it for his dearest friend,Dorian Gray.But Dorian don't like it because it will keep its beauty but he will be older.However instead of him,the portrait change its appearance...
When I finished reading,I was sad because Dorian couldn't change his life.Basil's thought that Dorian souldn't meet Lord Henry was right.I don't like Lord Henry because he changed Dorian for his amusement. ( )

Basil painted the picture of Dorian Gray who was young and beautiful.
But it was an unusual picture.
I thought Lord Henry was the most evil.
Dorian Gray was just easier to be influenced by him. ( )

Dorian Gray loved his beautiful face.
When he saw a portrait of him,'I wish the picture could chang,and I could stay as I am,' he said.
After that his mind has gradually changed...

I've known his name because I watched the movie'The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen'.
The story was really excting and a little scary.
It made me think what it is to be the most important in my life.
My favorite scene is the ending.
I do reccomend this one! ( )
