Dr. Herbert West Quotes:

  • Dr. Herbert West: Blasphemy? Before what? God? A God repulsed by the miserable humanity He created in His own image? I will not be shackled by the failures of your God. The only blasphemy is to wallow in insignificance. I have taken refuse of your God's failures and I have triumphed. There! THERE is my creation!

  • Dr. Herbert West: I created what no man's mind nor woman's womb could ever hope to achieve.

  • Dr. Herbert West: Pure potentiality, the primordial ooze from which life originates.

  • Dr. Herbert West: Make a note of it, Dan! Tissue rejection!

  • Dr. Herbert West: [the reanimated corpses are breaking into the basement] My god! They're using tools!

  • Dr. Herbert West: He's a wife-beater, Dan! Use the gun!

  • Dr. Herbert West: The central nervous system is still intact... may still prove to be useful, more useful than he'd be otherwise.

  • Dan Cain: I'm a doctor!

    Dr. Herbert West: ...who will be a scientist.

  • Dan Cain: I'm moving out.

    Dr. Herbert West: What?

    Dan Cain: I'm moving out.

    Dr. Herbert West: Dan, you can't turn your back on this, this is the key to creating life. Parts... re-animated parts!

    Dan Cain: We're trying to save whole people, not parts.

    Dr. Herbert West: Exactly! And what are people over and above a collection of living parts? We can create new life!

    Dan Cain: This morbid doodling with human body parts... is this what it's all about? Is this what all our great work has led to?

    Dr. Herbert West: Exactly what are you insinuating?

    Dan Cain: This is madness... it had nothing to do with me!

    Dr. Herbert West: Oh, I see!

    Dan Cain: No!

    Dr. Herbert West: Oh, I didn't see. I didn't see you rejecting my work when Meg was lying there dead. Where were your great ideals then?

    Dan Cain: Don't!

  • Dr. Herbert West: [to Hill's head] You're a dead... head!... and a no... body!

    [knocks over Hill's head with a severed arm and laughs]

  • Dr. Herbert West: The feet of a young ballet dancer, who ended her life when she lost her ambition. These legs... walked the streets. You remember the hooker who was killed in ER by her pimp last week? Think of all the bodies these legs have wrapped around. What was the value of her life, to end up being picked apart by the likes of Dr. Graves and his bumbling students? And here, the womb of the virgin, struck down before tasting the pleasures of life, you remember? Her skin, so soft, so warm, but so cold in death. The arms of the waitress. The lawyers hand - case dismissed. Look at this delicate piece, what do you think? A sculptress? A harpist? Would you believe, a murderess? But they're all equal now, nothing but cast off remnants of a meaningless existence.
