the urge to go whaling… 😩 (but not, obviously)

“There, then, he sat, the sign and symbol of a man without faith, hopelessly holding up hope in the midst of despair.” p. 242

God willing I will finish this long ass book

so far moby-dick has accompanied me to the doctor's and dentist. witty, interesting, and insightful; it has brought forth in me a respect for the creatures (whales) and resurfaced my respect & fear of the sea
