    Shoot, a fellow could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.

    The schoolmaster is abroad! And I trust to him armed with his primer against the soldier in full military array.

    The sailor is frankness, the landsman is finesse. Life is not a game with the sailor, demanding the long head—no intricate game of chess where few moves are made in straight-forwardness and ends are attained by indirection, an oblique, tedious, barren game hardly worth that poor candle burnt out in playing it.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
