whose first great adventure novel quoted part of a famous poem before the story starts which read "come my friends tis not too late to seek a newer world"
It continues -"Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.�
Lord Alfred Tennyson
'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.�
