Henry Frankenstein
- Henry Frankenstein: Look! It's moving. It's alive. It's alive... It's alive, it's moving, it's alive, it's alive, it's alive, it's alive, IT'S ALIVE!
- Victor Moritz: Henry - In the name of God!
- Henry Frankenstein: Oh, in the name of God! Now I know what it feels like to be God!
- Henry Frankenstein: Dangerous? Poor old Waldman. Have you never wanted to do anything that was dangerous? Where should we be if no one tried to find out what lies beyond? Have you never wanted to look beyond the clouds and the stars, or to know what causes the trees to bud? And what changes the darkness into light? But if you talk like that, people call you crazy. Well, if I could discover just one of these things, what eternity is, for example, I wouldn't care if they did think I was crazy.
- Doctor Waldman: You really believe you can bring life to the dead?
- Henry Frankenstein: That body is not dead. It has never lived. I created it. I made it with my own hands, from the bodies I took from graves, from the gallows, anywhere! Go and see for yourself.
- Henry Frankenstein: The brain you stole, Fritz. Think of it. The brain of a dead man waiting to live again in a body I made with my own hands! With my own hands.
- Elizabeth: Henry, I'm afraid. Terribly afraid. Where's Dr. Waldman? Why is he late for the wedding?
- Henry Frankenstein: Oh, he's always late. He'll be here soon.
- Elizabeth: Something is going to happen. I feel it! I can't get it out of my mind.
- Dr. Henry Frankenstein: You're quite sure you want to come in?... Very well.

- Dr. Henry Frankenstein: Forgive me, but I'm forced to take unusual precautions.
- Henry Frankenstein: I've got to experiment further. He's only a few days old, remember. So far he's been kept in complete darkness. Wait till I bring him into the light.
