Jackie,
     It's just a quote.

     In my opinion, Melville is one of the greatest writers this world has ever seen. He could even write a convincing whale of a tale and took us there with him. I really like his style of writing. Makes me wonder if he knew that he was writing a classic when he wrote Moby Dick. It was thought to be a failure during his lifetime but later considered to be a literary masterpiece. It never sold it's initial 3000 copies in his lifetime.
