Document Summary
Discussion 2/2/18: basil says maybe it"s better to live an ordinary life. He says lord henry"s rank and wealth will end up destroying him, basil"s heart and brain will destroy him and dorian looks will end up destroying him: dorian ends up destroying himself. He is alone and living in the house by himself she divorced him ( it was rare back then in the 1890s). He refers to himself as looking old, yellow and worn: lord henry"s future: nobody loves him and no one will love him. He is turning into the thing he hates the most: an old attractive man whose life may as well be over: 160, dorian addicted to opium. Piece of furniture in his home where he hides the drug: dorian being compared to the devil. His evil comes from rebellion when that high spirit, that morning star of evil fell from heaven, it was as a rebel that he fell. : 164.
