Which part of the excerpt hints at Frankenstein's desire to act as God? Frankenstein
by Mary Shelley (excerpt)
It may appear very strange, that a disciple of Albertus Magnus should arise in the eighteenth century; but our family was not scientifical, and I
had not attended any of the lectures given at the schools of Geneva. My dreams were therefore undisturbed by reality, and I entered with the
greatest diligence into the search of the philosopher's stone and the elixir of life. But the latter obtained my undivided attention: wealth was an
inferior object; but what glory would attend the discovery, if I could banish disease from the human frame, and render man invulnerable to any
but a violent death!
Nor were these my only visions. The raising of ghosts or devils was a promise liberally accorded by my favorite authors, the fulfillment of which !
most eagerly sought; and if my incantations were always unsuccessful, I attributed the failure rather to my own inexperience and mistake than
to a want of skill or fidelity in my instructors.
The natural phenomena that take place every day before our eyes did not escape my examinations. Distillation, and the wonderful effects of
steam, processes of which my favorite authors were utterly ignorant, excited my astonishment; but my utmost wonder was engaged by some
experiments on an air pump, which I saw employed by a gentleman whom we were in the habit of visiting.

"... if I could banish disease from the human frame, and render man invulnerable to any but a violent death!"

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
