Logan's Run (TV Series)

Fear Factor (1977)

Ed Nelson: Dr. Rowan

Quotes 

• Jessica : How are you going to treat her?

  Dr. Rowan : There are several steps. I've already made good progress deadening her emotional system.

  Jessica : Deadening?

  Dr. Rowan : Yes.

  Jessica : You mean you've deprived her of her human feelings?

  Dr. Rowan : Well, yes - and the ability to think for herself. Now the only emotions she can feel are my own which I feed to her by computerized amplifier.

  Jessica : That's shocking!

  Dr. Rowan : Why?

  Jessica : She's a human being. She has the right to feelings, to emotions!

  Dr. Rowan : My dear Jessica, believe me it is for her own good. She was a woman of strange ideas - a militant independent. She had a total disregard for authority. She had a restless, inquiring mind. In every way, she was different.

  Logan : That sounds like a description of Jessica.

• Dr. Rowan : Paulson, wait! Aren't you afraid? I mean, it's dangerous out there. You're not going to have the security of the Inner Circle to protect you. I mean, how-how will you live?

  Logan : You're right, it is dangerous, but that's part of being free - the willingness to live with danger.
