Quotes
-
Capt. Peleg : What do you know about whaling?
Ishmael : Nothing, sir. But I want to see what whaling is. I want to see the world.
Capt. Peleg : Can't you see the world from where you stand, young man? You want to see what whaling is, do you? Are you man enough to pitch a harpoon down a live whale's throat and jump after it?
Ishmael : Well, I am, sir, if it be absolutely indispensible that I do so.
Capt. Peleg : I'll tell you this: There's death in this business, young man.
