Jack London
He lacked the wisdom, and the only way for him to get it was to buy it with his youth; and when wisdom was his, youth would have been spent buying it.
London quotes
The trouble with him was that he was without imagination. He was quick and alert in the things of life, but only in the things, and not in the significances.
London
Too much is written by the men who can't write about the men who do write.




London Jack quotes
He was mastered by the sheer surging of life, the tidal wave of being, the perfect joy of each separate muscle, joint, and sinew in that it was everything that was not death, that it was aglow and rampant, expressing itself in movement, flying exultantly under the stars.
