Victor Frankenstein: No I'm serious. You take vaccine for instance. 30 years ago the entire concept of vaccine was unheard of, and now we save lives every day. But that isn't the whole answer.
Henry Clerval: What do you mean?
Victor Frankenstein: That sooner or later the best way to cheat death, will be to create life.
Henry Clerval: Now you've gone too far. There's only one God, Victor.
Victor Frankenstein: No. Leave God out of this. Listen. You love someone they have a sick heart. Wouldn't you give them a healthy one.
Henry Clerval: Impossible!
Victor Frankenstein: No, it's not impossible. We can do it. We're steps away. If we can do that if we can replace one part of a human being. We can replace every part. And if we can do that we can design a life. We can create a being that will not grow old or sicken. One that will be stronger than us, better than us, one that will be more intelligent than us, more civilized than us.
Henry Clerval: In our lifetime?
Professor Waldman: No!
Victor Frankenstein: How close did you get, Professor?
Professor Waldman: Too close.
Victor Frankenstein: Professor, I beg you, let me see these notes!
Professor Waldman: No! My work now and it's application, lies exclusively in the preservation of life. I abandoned my researches many years ago.
Victor Frankenstein: Why?
Professor Waldman: Because they resulted in abomination
