Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


"But, Billy, you told me long ago that fighting took the silk out
of you. That was why you'd quit it and stayed by teaming."


"Not this kind of fightin'," he answered. "I got this one all
doped out. I'll let 'm last till about the seventh. Not that
it'll be necessary, but just to give the audience a run for its
money. Of course, I'll get a lump or two, an' lose some skin.
Then I'll time 'm to that glass jaw of his an' drop 'm for the
count. An' we'll be all packed up, an' next mornin' we'll pull
out. What d'ye say? Aw, come on."
