Moby Dick Quote

Captain Ahab: Why the long face, Mr. Starbuck? Have you no game for Moby-Dick?

Starbuck: Aye, I have game for his crooked jaw. I have game for the jaws of death, if that's part of the business we came for. Sir, I am here to hunt whale, not my commander's vengeance. How many barrels of oil will your vengeance yeild, I ask you?

Captain Ahab: If money be the measure of everything we do, let me tell ye my vengeance will fetch a great premium here!

Starbuck: What do you wish of me, Captain Ahab?

Captain Ahab: Help me to strike a fin. Surely no impossible task for you, the best lancer of all Nantucket. Surely you, of all this crew, will not hold back.
