Quotes from
Dr. Paul Rigas:

June Lawrence: [referring to Dr. Rivas] He's a genius in his line.
Mark Adams: Maybe, but I'll bet he spent his childhood stickin' pins into butterflies.

By successive treatments their bodies can be so electrolyzed that they are no longer subject to the pains and frailties of ordinary mankind.
Dr. John Lawrence: Sometimes I think you are mad.
Dr. Paul Rigas: I am! So was Archimedes, Galileo. Newton, Pasteur, Lister, and all the others who dared to dream!
