Jack London
“Hers was that common insularity of mind that makes human creatures believe that their color, creed, and politics are best and right and that other human creatures scattered over the world are less fortunately placed than they.”
Jack London, Martin Eden

William Wharton
“There's no end to the absurd things people will do trying to make life mean something.”
William Wharton, Birdy

Jack London
“Charley Hapgood is what they call a rising young man - somebody told me as much. And it is true. He'll make the Governor's Chair before he dies, and, who knows? maybe the United States Senate." "What makes you think so?" Mrs. Morse had inquired. "I've heard him make a campaign speech. It was so cleverly stupid and unoriginal, and also so convincing, that the leaders cannot help but regard him as safe and sure, while his platitudes are so much like the platitudes of the average voter that - oh, well, you know you flatter any man by dressing up his own thoughts for him and presenting them to him.”
Jack London, Martin Eden

Jack London
“I was not made for the desk and counting-house, for petty business squabbling, and legal jangling.”
Jack London, Martin Eden

Jack London
“La mort ne faisait pas souffrir. C'était la vie, cette atroce sensation d'étouffement : c'était le dernier coup que devait lui porter la vie. Ses mains et ses pieds, dans un dernier sursaut de volonté, se mirent à battre, à faire bouillonner l'eau, faiblement, spasmodiquement. Mais malgré ses efforts désespérés, il ne pourrait jamais plus remonter ; il était trop bas, trop loin. Il flottait languissement, bercé par un flot de visions très douces. Des couleurs, une radieuse lumière l'enveloppaient, le baignaient, le pénétraient. Qu'était-ce ? On aurait dit un phare. Mais non, c'était dans son cerveau, cette éblouissante lumière blanche. Elle brillait de plus en plus resplendissante. Il y eut un long grondement, et il lui sembla glisser sur une interminable pente. Et, tout au fond, il sombra dans la nuit. Ça, il le sut encore : il avait sombré dans la nuit. Et au moment même où il le sut, il cessa de le savoir.”
Jack London, Martin Eden
