at the very same time you were trying to implant God and the motherland in my heart — at that very same time, and perhaps on the very same days, you were poisoning the heart of this unfortunate man, this maniac, Kirillov… You were validating lies and slander in him, you drove his rational faculties to the point of frenzy… Go and have a look at him now, he’s your creation…
How double-hearted these serpents are. I like the connection between Stavrogin being Kirillov's creator and Pyotr's relationship with Kirillov.
Also saying that Kirillov is Stavrogin's creation makes Stavrogin sound godly because it gives him the status of being a creator of a person. But anyway, look at how ruined that creation is.
