"We just can't take any more chances with valuable cargoes," "Captain Stoddard." "Chances?" "You blithering ingrate." "I've sailed your ships around the Horn in the teeth of a gale a dozen times while men half my age were beating their way into a snug harbor." "I'm sorry, Captain." "The stockholders have voted to retire you." "There just isn't anything I can do about it." "Yes, there is something you can do." "You can tell your blasted stockholders" "I hope they choke on their valuable cargoes." "Now, get out of here." "Now, Mr. Halloran, how can you possibly think of retiring Captain Stoddard?" "Where would you find a man to replace him?" "We already have." "The board wants to see you tomorrow morning at 10:00," "Mr. Cartwright." "Me?"

"I've got a little money." "I'll buy an equal partnership." "Sir, will you will you also drink to our marriage?" "Aye." "I think I can drink enough for both." "Well, that should do it." "Captain, thank you very much indeed." "Come back and see us again." "Darling, are you sure you're feeling all right?" "I feel marvelous, Ben." "Well, I..." "I still don't think you should be working now." "You can't lock me up." "I'm not that sort of woman, you know that." " Mm." " Besides, we're doing so well." "You need me." "It's impossible to argue with women." "But please, do take care of yourself." "Go in the back room, and lie down, take a nap for an hour."

"Oh, yes, I am, sir." "Would you like to come along?" "There's a shipment of new chronometers and sextants coming in." "Well, I suppose they're expensive like that fancy new compass you bought us." "Well, it-it was worth it, sir." "That compass brought a lot of customers in." "(Captain laughs)" "Well, there's a whole new crop of young seamen who appreciate new ideas in navigation." "Whole new crop of young seamen." "(laughs) Aye." "Well, that does it for you, Ben." "I'll come around your place in the morning for the money." "That'll be fine, thank you, Ethan." "It'll be there." "How is the captain holding up?" "(indistinct shouting)" "Well, he does his job, but his mind, I'm afraid, is still at sea." "(indistinct shouting)" " Hello, Mr. Cartwright." " Mandible." "You must be doing pretty well, the way you're buying merchandise." "Well enough, sir." "You're an enterprising young man." "I've got to give you credit, trying to compete with me." "Well, sir, we have less overhead, so we can afford to sell for less profit." "Well, I'm not really worried about your competition, Mr. Cartwright, but remember, whenever you decide to give up that little flea market of yours," "I might be able to interest you in some real opportunity." "Thank you, sir." "We'll make out." "(chuckling)" "The sea is whispering your name, Captain." "If you stand on the wharf, you can hear it." "Aye." "There are some men who are born for a certain sort of life." "If they leave it, desert it, they die." "I hear those whispers in my sleep." "In my soul." "But do you care?" "Do you really care?" "Eight months is a long time, Captain." "A compromise for living is no living at all." "I'll sail again, Mister." "I believe you." "I hear you've been up and down the coast looking for another command." "I want to help you." "How can you help me?" "By giving you a chance to buy a share of a ship." "What kind of a ship?" "What difference does it make?" "She'll be seaworthy, she'll have her own crew, and you'll be her master." "I don't work for a man like you, Mandible." "Then you'll work for no man." "What is it you want me to command, a slaver?" "I want you for... better things." "I want you to own a share of your own ship." "Aye." "So I can drive my short-handed, ill-fed crew till they drop." " (pouring drink)" " I know what kind of business you run, Mandible, and I want no part of it, do you hear?" "No part of it!" "You're a dead man, Captain." "As dead as the whispers of your name... on the sea." "Well, hello, Captain." "How's the mercantile business these days?" "On your way, Mister!" "Huh!" "Well, he says it's good, mates!" "(laughter)" "Aye, there'll always be a sailor to buy a few doodads now and then, don't you know?" "(laughter)" "When are you gonna start selling ribbons, Captain?" "(laughter)" "Laugh, you jackasses, go ahead and laugh!" "I'll be master of my own ship again!" "Strike me dead if I'm not!" "(laughter)" "(laughter continues)" "I want a ship, Mandible!" "Would you like some coffee, Captain?" "I want my money, Benjamin." "You what?" "My money." "Money I put into the business." "And any profits that are coming to me." "Well, why do you want the money, Captain?" "(chuckles) Why do you want to pull out?" "I don't have to explain to you, Mister." "Captain, y-you're my partner." "You have to explain everything to me." "I..." "You come in here and you-you want to break an agreement-- now, I want to know why." "You gonna give me my share or not?" "Well, I..." "I can't give it to you." "I..." "I need all the cash on hand to pay Bell for those chronometers when he comes to collect tomorrow." "Blazes with the chronometers!" "I want my money, man!" "Now, look, Captain... you... you go and get a good night's rest, and we'll talk about this in the morning." "We'll talk about it now." "Sir, you... you're in no condition to talk." "So... you won't give me my money." "No, sir..." "I will not." "(foghorn blowing in distance)" "What is it?" "What's the matter?" "Oh, nothing." "Just a kick, I suppose." " Really?"

"What difference does it make?" "What difference?" "!" "The difference between faithlessness and trust, the difference between selfishness and sacrifice..." "Don't reprimand me, Mister!" "I don't need your schoolmaster's lectures." "Now, just what do you need, Captain Stoddard?" "STODDARD:" "I know what you want, Mister." "You want this old man out of the way." "No, no, sir, that's not true." "But Elizabeth and I do want a life together." "I'm trying to give you a life!" "That's why I took the money-- so that I could go back to sea, where I belong." "I'm tired of seeing those faces laughing at me!" "How could you?" "!" "You make me ashamed to be your daughter." " Elizabeth..." " Why did you come here?" "!" "You kept me from the sea!" "Making a shopkeeper of me!" "Now you turn my own flesh against me." " Captain..." " Ben!" " Elizabeth!" " Ben!" "Elizabeth." "Don't just stand there." "Get Dr. Byram." "Hurry!"

"Tall sons... like the trees that will surround them." "(Elizabeth chuckles softly)" "Now, Liz... now, you must rest." "Oh, don't go away, Ben." "Read to me, just for a little while."

"It's a confused world." "It's not the world that's confused." "Can I buy you a drink, Captain?" "No, you bought me enough." "Then why don't you just say what's on your mind?" "I'm not commanding any ship for you." "That's where you're wrong." "This paper says I own you for a term of six months." "Nobody owns me." "You were wrong, Mr. Mandible-- the sea doesn't whisper my name anymore." "I listened, and I couldn't hear it." "I'm through with the sea for good and always." "Not quite, sir."
