因此，對於眼前這些奇怪地被嚇到的鯨魚，我們最好還是不要大驚小怪；因為地球上任何動物的愚行，都遠比不上人類的瘋狂。
—赫爾曼．梅爾維爾「白鯨記」
“Best, therefore, withhold any amazement at the strangely gallied whales before us, for there is no folly of the beasts of the earth which is not infinitely outdone by the madness of men.”
—Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, the Whale
