“Remember that I am thy creature; I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed. Everywhere I see bliss, from which I alone am irrevocably excluded. I was benevolent and good – misery made me a fiend. Make me happy, and I shall again be virtuous.”
– Mary Shelley
Frankenstein, Chapter 10. The monster, who longs for love, blames Victor for his evil actions by failing to provide him with a loving, nourishing environment. He compares Victor to God and rebukes him for casting him as the fallen angel instead of Adam. In his allusions to the bible, the creature is referencing God’s love, which is at the heart of Christianity.
