Famous quotes containing the words patrick and/or bateman:
“What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“I’ll tell you something, Doc. Ever since I was born, everybody looks at me and says, “You’re ugly.” Makes me feel mean.... I’m saying, Doc, maybe because I look ugly—maybe if a man looks ugly he does ugly things.”
—David Boehm. Louis Friedlander. Edmond Bateman (Boris Karloff)
