"Oh, man! admire and model thyself after the whale! Do thou, too, remain warm among ice. Do thou, too, live in this world without being of it. Be cool at the equator; keep thy blood fluid at the Pole. Like the great dome of St. Peter's, and like the great whale, retain, O man! in all seasons a temperature of thine own."
Herman Melville, Moby Dick
1.7.10
Mad
The madman knows not he is mad; To argue that he would be glad. But what makes me slightly more sad Is that he would not mind to be dead.
