How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Young Frankenstein.
Quote #1
FREDERICK: Once a nerve fiber is severed, there is no way in heaven or on earth to regenerate life back into it.
Wrong! We later see how the doctor's work is able to do the impossible. Actually, scientists are working like mad (no pun intended) to regenerate spinal cord nerves. They've had some success in rats.
Quote #2
FREDERICK: Dead is dead!
Wrong again! The doctor later proves that death is only temporary.
Quote #3
FREDERICK: I am not interested in death! The only thing that concerns me is the preservation of life!
Ah, a true physician. But if this is true, how does reanimating a dead body with someone else's brain fall into the category of "preservation of life?" In Frederick's defense, he said this before he became obsessed with his grandfather's work.
