The pleasures which I made haste to seek in my disguise
were, as I have said, undignified When I would come
back from these excursions, I was often plunged into a
kind of wonder at my vicarious depravity. ... Henry
Jekyll stood at times aghast before the acts of Edward
Hyde; but the situation was apart from ordinary laws,
and insidiously relaxed the grasp of conscience. It was
Hyde, after all, and Hyde alone, that was guilty. Jekyll
was no worse; he woke again to his good qualities
seemingly unimpaired; he would even make haste, where
it was possible, to undo the evil done by Hyde. And thus
his conscience slumbered.
- The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,
Robert Louis Stevenson
