I agree with the statement that "We are what society makes us." I agree because according to the creature, at first he was good and benevolent, but when he saw that no human being treated him kindly, misery made him a fiend. The creature wanted to hurt all mankind because he saw no point in being nice to them when they were not nice to him. However, in Justine Mortiz's case, the rejection her mother felt towards her did not fully affect the way she was because she at least received love and affection from the Frankenstein family, who adopted her. She was not as lonely and miserable as the creature was, so she was still a nice person.
