Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


And we, in our comfortable deck-chairs, our two servants at our
backs, the quintessence of elegant leisure, sipped delicate tea from
beautiful, fragile cups, and looked on at these wretched ones whose
labour made possible the journey of our little world. We did not
speak to them, nor recognize their existence, any more than would
they have dared speak to us.


And Miss West, with the appraising eye of a plantation mistress for
the condition of her field slaves, looked them over.
