"All men hate the wretched; how then must
I be hated, who am miserable beyond all living
things! Yet you, my creator, detest and spurn
me, thy creature, to whom thou art bound by
ties only dissoluble by the annihilation of
one of us. You purpose to kill me. How dare
you sport thus with life? Do your duty
towards me, and I will do mine towards you and
the rest of mankind. If you will comply with
my conditions, I will leave them and you at
peace; but if you refuse, I will glut the maw
of death, until it be satiated with the blood
of your remaining friends." --- Frankenstein
