  1. Moby-Dick

    Moby-Dick

    or, The Whale

    by Herman Melville

    Starbuck: Starbuck is the cautious, quiet, religious first mate of the Pequod. He argues with Ahab on his judgment concerning Moby Dick, worrying of the lives of the crew and of Ahab. He is a soft-spoken Christian that counterbalances Ahab's insanity. The character after whom the famous and ubiquitous coffee company is named. A New Englander.

    Memorable Quotes by Starbuck:

    “It is our task in life to kill whales, to furnish oil for the lamps of the world. If we perform that task well and faithfully, we do a service to mankind that pleases Almighty God. Ahab would deny all that. He has taken us from the rich harvest we were reaping to satisfy his lust for vengeance. He is twisting that which is holy into something dark and purposeless. He is a Champion of Darkness. Ahab's red flag challenges the heavens.”
