Dorian Gray: Critical Quotations

I've started learning my Dorian quotes and I HAVE SO MANY TO CHOOSE FROM!

I know I won't be able to learn all of them so do you guys have any suggestions in terms of the most useful critical quotations?
What exam is this for?
Consider the following?
What about AOs? is your most marks coming from your critical quotes?
How do you have you incorporate them into your exam? (back up your point using a critical quote or using the quote to then interpret them?)
It depends on the theme of the exam. I did Victorian Literature for AS, in which case I'd say look at the things about the appearence of the Upper Class, ideas of science vs religion and the treatment of women with Sibyl Vane etc. For A2 it was Love THrough the Ages, in which case look at the Sibyl-Dorian and Basil-Dorian realtionships or the Vane family etc.
