Herman Melville:
»Ich freue mich über mein Rückgrat, wie über die feste, kühne Stange der Fahne, die ich halb in die Welt hinausschleudere.«

Bertholt Brecht:
Herr Keuner: »Ich habe kein Rückgrat zum Zerschlagen. Gerade ich muß länger leben als die Gewalt.«

He patted the table on which rested an imaginary pile of books : the new canon, the new literature of a reborn again America. Melville was strong drink and for the whole long twentieth century young American men had been swilling down jugs of the old sailor’s fermented juice by the gallon and now “we” (the literati) had just woken up with handovers.

"Was it not so, O Don Miguel! thou Chilian whale, marked like an old tortoise with mystic hieroglyphics upon the back!"

I am suddenly much more interested in Don Miguel than I am Moby Dick, let's follow that whale instead
