Undoubtedly, Griffin’s unbridled ambition drove him to the verge of disaster from where he easily tipped over and fell into the chasm of disaster.

Griffin had no conscience; he was callous towards other people and simply self-centered. He appeared to be at war with the entire mankind. All his actions stemmed from his desire to save himself, with not a thought about the pain he inflicted on others. That some traits were inborn can be seen in how he hid his work from his own professor, lest he or anyone else claimed the credit from it.
