Frankenstein or the modern Prometheus

 


 

Frankenstein, or the modern Prometheus
av Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

"I had feelings of affection, and they were requited by detestation and scorn. Man! you may hate, but beware! your hours will pass in drear and misery, and soon the bolt will fall which must ravish from you your happiness forever. Are you to be happy while I grovel in the intensity of my wretchedness? You can blast my other passions, but revenge remains- revenge, henceforth dearer than light or food! I may die; but first you, my tyrant and tormentor, shall curse the sun that gazes on your misery. Beware; for I am fearless, and therefor powerful. I will watch you with the wiliness of a snake, that I may sting with its venom. Man, you shall repent of the injuries you inflict." -Frankenstein chapter 20
