“Like Adam, I was apparently united by no link to any other being in existence; but his state was far different than mine in every other respect. He had come forward from the hands of God a perfect creature, happy and prosperous, guarded by the especial care of his Creator; he was allowed to converse with and acquire knowledge from beings of superior nature, but I was wretched, helpless and alone. Many times I considered Satan as the fitter emblem of my condition…..”

Mary Shelley, “Frankenstein”, 1818.
