I came across this quote from the novel today, from Chapter 58, "Brit":
"….though
but a moment's consideration will teach, however baby man may brag of his
science and skill, and however much, in a flattering future, that science and
skill may augment; yet for ever and for ever, to the crack of doom, the sea
will insult and murder him, and pulverize the stateliest, stiffest frigate he
can make."
