Quotes 

  • The Creature : I do know that for the sympathy of one living being, I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.

  • [Walton finds the Creature weeping over Frankenstein's body] 

    Captain Robert Walton : Who are you?

    The Creature : He never gave me a name.

    [he continues to weep] 

    Captain Robert Walton : Why do you weep?

    The Creature : He was my father.

  • The Creature : I am done with man.

  • The Creature : If you deny me my wedding night, I will be with you on yours!

  • The Creature : Get up. Get up.

    Victor Frankenstein : You do speak.

    The Creature : Yes, I speak. And read. And think. And know the ways of man.

    Victor Frankenstein : How did you find me?

    The Creature : Your journal.

    Victor Frankenstein : Then you mean to kill me?

    The Creature : No.

    Victor Frankenstein : You murdered my brother, didn't you?

    The Creature : I took him by the throat with one hand, and lifted him off the ground, and slowly crushed his neck, and, as I killed him, I saw your face. You gave me these emotions, but you didn't tell me how to use them. Now two people are dead because of us. Why?

    Victor Frankenstein : There was something at work in my soul which I do not understand.

    The Creature : What of my soul? Do I have one? Or was that a part you left out? Who were these people of which I am comprised? Good people? Bad people?

    Victor Frankenstein : Materials. Nothing more.

    The Creature : You're wrong.

    [Shows flute] 

    The Creature : Did you know I knew how to play this? In which part of me did this knowledge reside? In these hands? In this mind? In this heart? And reading and speaking. Not things learned, so much as things remembered.

    Victor Frankenstein : Trace memories in the brain, perhaps.

    The Creature : Did you ever consider the consequences of your actions? You gave me life, and then you left me to die. Who am I?

    Victor Frankenstein : You... I don't know.

    The Creature : And you think I'm evil.

    Victor Frankenstein : What can I do?

    The Creature : There is something I want. A friend.

    Victor Frankenstein : [confused]  A friend?

    The Creature : A companion. A female. Someone like me. So she won't hate me.

    Victor Frankenstein : Like you? Oh, God. You don't know what you're asking.

    The Creature : I do know that with the sympathy of one living being I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of you can scarcely imagine. And rage, the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.

    Victor Frankenstein : And if I consent, how will you live?

    The Creature : We would travel north, my bride and I, to the furthest reaches of the pole where no man has ever set foot. There we would live out our lives, together. No human eye would ever see us again. This, I vow. You must help me. Please.

    Victor Frankenstein : If it is possible to right this wrong. Then I will do it.

  • The Creature : I will have revenge! FRANKENSTEIN!

  • The Creature : Don't bother to scream.

  • The Creature : I will be with you on your wedding night!

  • The Creature : I keep my promises.

  • The Creature : I'd keep my promises if I were you.

  • Murderer : You're not sticking that in me? Got a pox in it, I hear.

    Woman : Pox? They're giving us pox?

    Murderer : That's right, pox.

    Professor Waldman : It's not pox. It's a vaccine that will prevent a plague in this city.

    Woman : What's that?

    Professor Waldman : It's a tiny harmless amount of anti-smallpox serum.

    Murderer : You just said "pox"!

    Professor Waldman : I said it was harmless. It's a necessary precaution, about which, this godforsaken city would be immediately put under quarantine.

    Murderer : You doctors kill people. I don't care what you say you're not stickin' that in me!

    Professor Waldman : Yes I am. It's the law! Now sit him down, someone.

    Murderer : You're not stickin' that in me! You're not stickin'that in me!

    [Pulls out knife and fatally stabs the professor] 

  • The Creature : There are people, but they do not know me.

    Grandfather : Why do you not go to them?

    The Creature : Because I am so ugly, and they are beautiful.

  • The Creature : I am done with Man.

  • Murderer : The hell with you! Whatever you say, whatever you call it, you doctors are killers. You murder people! Evil! You're evil! You're evil. You're the ones that deserve to die. God will punish you. Punish you! God will punish you!

  • The Creature : Don't bother to scream.

    Elizabeth : Please - please don't hurt me.

    The Creature : You are lovelier than I ever - could have imagined.

  • Victor Frankenstein : Why her?

    The Creature : Materials, remember? Nothing more. Your words. You will honor your promise to me!
