• Professor Robertson : No need to be embarrassed, dear chap. Perfectly normal and natural. Been preaching it to you for years. Get a woman in your life - a good woman - and one day you'll wake up, you'll look at yourself in the mirror, and you'll see a changed man.

  Dr. Jekyll : Robertson, I - I don't mean to be rude, but...

  Professor Robertson : Understand, dear chap. Understand absolutely. In two is company, in three - a positive deviation.

• Dr. Jekyll : [voice over]  I was caught in a terrible trap. To continue my work I needed sister Hyde. Yet, all the time I became more and more aware of her growing dominance within me. A dominance I no longer had the strength to fight, contain, or control.

• Dr. Jekyll : I'll be rid of you!

  Sister Hyde : It is I who exist, Dr. Jekyll, not you. It is I who will be rid of you! Rid of you! Rid of you! Rid of you!
