![Chapter 1 quotes: [STORY OF THE DOOR]
"I let my brother go to Cain's heresy"
"He is not easy to describe...something down-right detestable"→](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent-eu-central-1.knowunity.com%2FCONTENT%2FDgLykIbIFfNiYZrkpMij_image_page_1.webp&w=2048&q=75)
This chapter delves deeper into the mysterious Mr. Hyde as Utterson investigates him. The atmospheric descriptions create a sense of urban terror and foreboding.
Quote "Nocturnal city" and "through sleeping houses"
These phrases establish the dark, unsettling urban setting that forms the backdrop for Hyde's activities.
Vocabulary "Troglodytic" - primitive, cave-dwelling. This term is used to describe Hyde, emphasizing his bestial nature.
The chapter provides more vivid descriptions of Hyde, such as "pale and dwarfish" and having a "murderous mixture of timidity and boldness." These continue to paint him as an unsettling, inhuman presence.
Quote "Satan's signature upon a face"
This powerful imagery directly links Hyde to evil, reinforcing the theme of good versus evil that runs throughout the novel.
The chapter ends with a quote hinting at the strained friendship between Jekyll and Hyde "creature stealing like a thief," foreshadowing the complex relationship that will be revealed.

This chapter provides insight into Dr. Jekyll's character and his relationship with Hyde, while also touching on themes of science and duality.
Quote "The moment I choose, I can be rid of Mr. Hyde"
This statement by Jekyll hints at his control over Hyde, while also demonstrating his secrecy and reluctance to discuss the situation fully.
Highlight The description of Jekyll as having "every mark of capacity and kindness" contrasts sharply with Hyde's evil nature, introducing the theme of duality that is central to the novel.
The chapter also touches on the conflict between science and tradition, with Lanyon described as a "hidebound, ignorant pedant." This sets up the tension between different approaches to understanding the world that will play out through the story.
Jekyll's physical reaction to discussion of Hyde - "Jekyll grew pale" - hints at the deep connection between them, building suspense and mystery.

This chapter introduces the mysterious relationship between Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde through the eyes of Mr. Utterson. Key quotes establish major themes and characterizations that will develop throughout the novel.
Quote "He is not easy to describe...something down-right detestable"
This description of Hyde immediately paints him as an unsettling, evil presence. The difficulty in describing him adds to his mysterious nature.
Quote "Little man trampled calmly over the child's body...it was hellish to see"
This vivid depiction of Hyde's cruelty establishes him as a truly malevolent character, foreshadowing the evil he will embody throughout the story.
Highlight The quote comparing Hyde to "Satan" and a "damned Juggernaut" further emphasizes his inhuman, destructive nature, introducing themes of evil and Darwinism.
The chapter also touches on themes of secrecy and hypocrisy, as seen in quotes like "I am ashamed of my long tongue" and references to the "last good influence in the lives of down-going men."
