Famous quotes containing the words patrick and/or bateman:
“If twins are believed to be less intelligent as a class than single-born children, it is not surprising that many times they are also seen as ripe for social and academic problems in school. No one knows the extent to which these kind of attitudes affect the behavior of multiples in school, and virtually nothing is known from a research point of view about social behavior of twins over the age of six or seven, because this hasn’t been studied either.”
—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)
