Doctor Jack Seward: Your diet, Mr. Renfield is disgusting.
Renfield: Actually, they're perfectly nutritious. You see each life that I ingest gives me life.
Doctor Jack Seward: The fly gives you life?
Renfield: Certainly. But you might as well ask a man to eat a molecule with chopsticks than to interest me in lesser carnivore.
Doctor Jack Seward: I shall have to invent a new classification of a lunatic like you. What about spiders? Spiders eat the flies.
Renfield: Yes, spiders eat them.
Doctor Jack Seward: But what about sparrows?
Renfield: Oh, yes. Did you say sparrows?
Doctor Jack Seward: Something larger perhaps?
Renfield: Oh, yes, a kitten. I beg you, a little, sleek, a playful kitten... something I can teach, I can feed. No one would refuse me a kitten.
Doctor Jack Seward: Wouldn't you prefer a cat?
Renfield: Oh, yes, a big cat! My salvation depends upon it!
