“Ranunculus chose that moment to saunter inside, the big orange cat going straight across to Jack to rub against his trouser legs. Clearly unconcerned about any hair the feline might be leaving behind, Jack bent to stroke the cat's striped head and back. "I see the two of you have already met," she remarked, observing the friendly byplay. Soft purrs issued from the cat, his eyes closing with contentment as Jack scratched him under his chin. "Indeed," Jack said. "This big fellow introduced himself to me while you were sleeping. He's quite expert at hogging the sofa." His gaze moved to the cat. "Aren't you... Ranunculus, is it not?" "That's right," she confirmed. Obviously Jack had gleaned additional "interesting details" from the servants. He stroked the cat's head, his voice lowering. "At least she didn't call you Buttercup, old man." "You know what ranunculus means?" she said, surprised. His gaze swung up to meet hers. "I know a great deal more on that subject than you might imagine. Let's just say you... inspired me to learn.”

“A tenger iránti érdeklődését mindannyian megértjük, némelyeknek azonban nehezére esik felfogni, hogy az irodalomban mit talál olyan figyelemre méltónak. A sagák olvasása persze élvezetes, hiszen izlandiakról szólnak, néha érdekesek és elég izgalmasak is, hősök is vannak bennük, akikhez mérheti magát az ember, a népmeséket is lehet olvasgatni, a hétköznapi életről meg a bátor tettekről szóló könyveket is, sőt egy-két verset is akár, leginkább olyan költőktől, akik izlandiakról írnak, és tudnak valamit a szénabetakarításról és a jószággal való bánásról is; na de hogy egy hajóskapitány az irodalmat egy szintre emelje a hallal, hát kérem, miféle kapitány az?”

“God has not given us time in order that we may play with it as we please. Time is the vessel with which we must draw from the well of life everlasting. Whoever does not bring it back full is made to feel the questioning glance of the Lord who says: "What hast thou done with those treasures of grace? I have commanded thee to bring this vessel back to me full - and thou hast gone thy own ways, hast forgotten the command of thy God, hast even broken the beautiful, holy vessel. And what dost thou now bring back?" Then the soul sinks down before God; it now lies before the Everlasting Judge. It can no longer run away from His words, as perhaps it did during life. There it lies before the Almighty, returning only fragments to Him - the fragments of so many shattered graces and so much lost time. Then the soul says to God: "Make it whole again!" If the soul was repentant at death, it will say this with great remorse. Then the Savior is merciful and says: "Come here! In Purgatory we will make it whole again." But this cannot be done without suffering; for the soul is softened by repentance, and it is by repentance that expiation must be made.”
