    “If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    “He’s indestructible. Frankenstein’s creation is man’s challenge to the laws of life and death.”
    —Edward T. Lowe, and Erle C. Kenton. Dr. Edelman (Onslow Stevens)
