Dutch Courage and Other Stories Quotes

“В глубине души каждого человека живет какое-то врожденное благородство, которое заставляет его восхищаться смелым поступком, если даже этот поступок совершил враг.”
― Jack London, Dutch Courage and Other Stories

“Such was the lesson that was quickly borne in upon him. It came hard, going as it did, counter to much that was strong and dominant in his own nature; and, while he disliked it in the learning of it, unknown to himself he was learning to like it. It was a placing of his destiny in another’s hands, a shifting of the responsibilities of existence. This in itself was compensation, for it is always easier to lean upon another than to stand alone.”
― Jack London, Dutch Courage and Other Stories
