Quotes
-
Captain Ahab : So you crossed his wake again?
Capt. Boomer : Aye. Twice.
Captain Ahab : But you could not fast him?
Capt. Boomer : Why would I want him? Isn't one limb enough? My wants a profitable home. No thank you, sir. No more white whales for me. He's best left alone.
Captain Ahab : Aye, but he'll be hunted nonetheless! What's best left alone, Captain, isn't always least to fight. When did you last see him?
Capt. Boomer : Upon my soul, sir, your blood's at boiling point!
Captain Ahab : Which way was he headed?
Capt. Boomer : Good God! East, I think!
Captain Ahab : East! Mr. Starbuck, prepare to set sail! We've wasted enough to time. Good day to you, Captain!
Capt. Boomer : What the devil is wrong with him? Has he lost his senses?
Starbuck : My apologies, Captain Boomer. No offense meant, I'm sure, sir. 'Tis the pain in his stump.
Capt. Boomer : The man's mad!
