Moby Dick Quote

Ishmael: What the devil's the matter with you?

Queequeg: Ishmael no want go on ship with Queequeg?

Ishmael: No. I mean, yes, of course I do. But you would be better suited to pick out a whaler that's suited for both of us, not I, and I shall certainly not take your money. Queequeg, I fear I must make a confession. I used to be a schoolteacher. Do you know what that is?

Queequeg: Aye. Missionary.

Ishmael: No. Well, not exactly. What I'm trying to say is that I've never jumped a spar in my life.

Queequeg: Ishmael no sailor?

Ishmael: Aye. Me no sailor. It's just that I have this burning desire to go to sea.

Queequeg: Me Ojo savvy. Ishmael pick ship. Ishmael pick ship.
