Quotes from
Mr. Hyde:
[after strangling Ivy]
Isn't Hyde a lover after your own heart?
Mr. Hyde: Perhaps you prefer a gentleman. One of those fine-mannered and honorable gentlemen. Those panting hypocrites who like your legs but talk about your garters.
Dr. Lanyon: Perhaps you're forgetting, you're engaged to Muriel.

Dr. Lanyon: If I understand you correctly, you sound almost indecent.
Dr. Jekyll: What names you give things!
