Excerpt from Youth: A Narrative, and Two Other Stories Yes, I have seen a little of the Eastern seas, but what I remember best is my first voyage there. You fellows know there are those voyages that seem ordered for the illustration of life, that might stand for a symbol of existence. You fight, work, sweat, nearly kill yourself, sometimes do kill yourself, trying to accomplish something - and you can't. Not from any fault of yours. You simply can do nothing, neither great nor little - not a thing in the world -not even marry an old maid, or get a wretched goo-ton cargo of coal to its port of destination.
