Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


I stole a look at his gnarled hands. Any finger would have made
three of mine. His wrist would have made three of my wrist.


"How much do you weigh?" I asked.


"Two hundred an' ten. But in my day, at my best, I tipped the scales
close to two-forty."


"And the Elsinore can't sail," I said, returning to the subject which
had roused him.
