Herman Melville Quotes

Glimpses Do You Seem To See Of That Mortally Intolerable Truth; That All Deep, Earnest Thinking Is But The Intrepid Effort Of The Soul To Keep The Open Independence Of Her Sea; While The Wildest Winds Of Heaven And Earth Conspire To Cast Her On The Treacherous, Slavish Shore?
But As In Landlessness Alone Resides The Highest Truth, Shoreless, Indefinite As God
So, Better Is It To Perish In That Howling Infinite, Than Be Ingloriously Dashed Upon The Lee, Even If That Were Safety! For Worm-like, Then, Oh! Who Would Craven Crawl To Land! Terrors Of The Terrible! Is All This Agony So Vain? Take Heart, Take Heart, O Bulkington! Bear Thee Grimly, Demigod! Up From The Spray Of Thy Ocean-perishing
Straight Up, Leaps Thy Apotheosis!
