the story of dr frankenstein
no human being could have passed a happier childhood than myself. instead of children’s play and adventure, i was driven by a desire to learn. i wasn’t interested in the structure of language or law. i wanted to learn the secrets of heaven and earth. my father was not scientific, so i had to look for a road without having a map. i entered the search for wisdom and dreamt of finding a way to cure any disease.
i read all the books i could find that threw light upon these matters. i studied maths and physics and the works of many learned author. at the age of seventeen, my parents sent me to university. but i found all that was taught at university very disappointing and decided that i would pioneer a new way, explore unknown powers, and unfold to the world the deepest mysteries of nature.
one of the phenomena that attracted my attention was the structure of the human body, and any animal that was alive. i often asked myself, where the principle of life came from. after days and nights of incredible labour i discovered the cause of life and how to create life from dead matter.
