“With every day, and from both sides of my intelligence, the moral and the intellectual, I thus drew steadily nearer to the truth, by whose partial discovery I have been doomed to such a dreadful shipwreck: that man is not truly one, but truly two.” ― Robert Louis Stevenson, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886) by Robert Louis Stevenson tells the story of a London legal practitioner named Gabriel John Utterson who probes into strange episodes that his old friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, is experiencing. Idealistic young scientist Jekyll thirsts for knowledge which has tragic consequences. Testing chemicals in his lab, he drinks a mixture that he anticipates will isolate and eliminate human evil. Instead, it unleashes a dark side within him, transforming him into the dreadful and vicious Mr. Hyde.
