"One man's life or death were but a small price to pay for the acquirement of the knowledge which I sought, for the dominion I should acquire and transmit over the elemental foes of our race."

"Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it."

"If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear!"

"If I have no ties and no affections, hatred and vice must be my portion."

"Sorrow only increased with knowledge."
