  • Sublime Philosophy! Thou art the patriarch's ladder, reaching heaven; And bright with beckoning angelsÂ?but alas! We see thee, like the patriarch, but in dreams, By the first step, dull slumbering on the earth.

  • Too much philosophy makes men mad.

  • I hear better with a pen in my hand.

  • Brings [O'Brian's] achievement to a new height....Such is O'Brian's power to possess the imagination that I found I was living in his world as much as my own, wanting to know what happens next. That is the real test. Any contemporary novelist should recognize in Patrick O'Brian a Master of the Art.
