Quotes
-
Dr. Henry Jekyll : [to Litauer] This moral quibbling is useless. Man as he is comprises two beings: one of whom I call man as he could be. In his perfection this inner man is beyond good and evil.
Dr. Ernst Littauer : And the other man?
Dr. Henry Jekyll : He, too, is beyond good and evil - man as he would be... free of all the restictions society imposes on us... subject only to his own will.

Dr. Henry Jekyll : [referring to deaf and mute schoolchildren who are fighting during recess] In each one of these dumb human animals there is a personality which shows itself only in play.
Dr. Ernst Littauer : Dumb human animals? Henry, these are not pretty Guinea pigs, they are children who cannot speak.
Dr. Henry Jekyll : But I am convinced that, in this case, the not speaking is a refusal of one part of the mind to allow the other part to express itself freely.
Dr. Ernst Littauer : You suggest they play out what they cannot speak out?
Dr. Henry Jekyll : Precisely!
Dr. Ernst Littauer : You are the same Henry Jekyll, forever seeking keys to the locked doors of the mind.
