“Sir Isaac Newton is said to have avowed that he felt like a child picking up shells beside the great and unexplored ocean of truth” (p.21). Victor Frankenstein quotes Isaac Newton, who is considered to be one of the most influential men in history. His contributions to mathematics and science are incredible; his many theories are now widely known and accepted. Shelley leads Frankenstein to becoming a very advanced scholar. At a considerably young age, Frankenstein had read many volumes written by some of the most famous alchemists and scientists the world had known, leading him towards his own discoveries.
