"'Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee. Sink all coffins and hearses to one common pool! and since neither can be mine, let me then tow to pieces, while still chasing thee, though tied to thee, thou damned whale! Thus, I give up the spear!'"
~Captain Ahab's final words in Herman Melville's Moby Dick, (Ch 135, p. 477)

When I first read Moby Dick in like 1995 I was like, that sounds familiar...
