Herman Melville
“- O que é essa coisa inescrutável e sobrenatural; que senhor oculto, cruel imperador sem remorsos é esse que me comanda contra todos os afetos e anseios naturais, e ordena que eu continue a atolar-me, que me pressiona para fazer, imprudente, aquilo que, em meu próprio coração, eu não me atreveria a ousar? É Ahab, Ahab? Sou eu, Deus, ou quem, que levanta esse braço? Mas se o grande Sol não se move por si mesmo, e nem uma única estrela pode girar a não ser por alguma força invisível, então como pode bater este pequeno coração, pensar este pequeno cérebro, a menos que Deus o faça bater, e o faça pensar, e não eu? Nós giramos e giramos neste mundo, homem, e o destino é a alavanca. E o tempo todo esse céu sorridente, esse mar profundo! A quem condenar quando o próprio juiz é arrastado para o tribunal?”
― Herman Melville, Moby Dick

Herman Melville
“Ahab is for ever Ahab, man. This whole act's immutably decreed. 'Twas rehearsed by thee and me a billion years before this ocean rolled. Fool! I am the Fates' lieutenant, I act under orders.”
― Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale
