With a matchup like that, who would win?
I love this chapter from Moby-Dick. It so perfectly contrasts sublime beauty of the world and the raw horror of life. I was thinking of it often while on my recent sailing trip aboard the Statsraad Lehmkuhl from Seattle to San Francisco.
Sit back and let me read the chapter for you, and may it inspire you to crack open some Herman Melville.
