Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Movie Quotes
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.

Forgotten it? Can a man dying of thirst forget water? And do you know what would happen to that thirst if it were to be denied water?

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

Buckingham Palace, I suppose.

I was ill, my darling.

Look where he kicked me.

Dr. Jekyll
Gentlemen! London is so full of fog, that it has penetrated our minds, set boundaries for our vision. As men of science, we should be curious and bold enough to peek beyond it - into the many wonders it conceals.

Dr. Jekyll
That's not a matter of conduct; but, elementary instinct.
Dr. Lanyon
You ought to control those instincts.
Dr. Jekyll
Are you pretending that either can or do? We may control our actions; but, not our impulses.
🧡

🤔
🥱
Dr. Jekyll
My analysis of this soul , the human psyche, leads me to believe that man is not truly one - but, truly two. One of him strives for the nobilities of life. This we call his good self. The other, seeks an expression of impulses that bind him to some dim animal relation with the earth. This - we may call the bad. These two carry out an eternal struggle in the nature of man. Yet, they are chained together - and that chain spells repression to the evil, remorse to the good. Now, if these two selves could be separated from each other, how much freer the good in us would be? What heights it might scale? And the so-called evil, once liberated, would fulfill itself and trouble us no more. I believe the day is not far off, when this separation will be possible.

Dr. Jekyll
Oh, I do love you seriously. So seriously that it - it frightens me. You've opened a gate for me into another world. Before that, my work was everything. I was drawn to the mysteries of science, to the unknown. But, now, the unknown wears your face. Looks back at me with your eyes.
Muriel Carew
Darling, I wish this moment would last forever.
Dr. Jekyll
You can make it last, dear. Oh, I love you. Be near me always.
Muriel Carew
Always. You and I.

Apart from the world!

Dr. Jekyll
Why aren't you frank enough to admit that other - that indecent self in you? No! You prefer to hide it, pretend it isn't there.
Dr. Lanyon
We have to accept certain things...
Dr. Jekyll
I don't want to accept them! I want to be clean - not only in my conduct; but, in my inner most thoughts and desires.
