“Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I'd strike the sun if it insulted me.”

“There is a wisdom that is woe; but there is a woe that is madness. And there is a Catskill eagle in some souls that can alike dive down into the blackest gorges, and soar out of them again and become invisible in the sunny spaces.

― Herman Melville, Moby Dick
