Captain Beatty Quotes Novels & Stories

"What you said describes you, Captain. I wouldn't be surprised that you prefer him because he's like you." He hummed in agreement and pulled me closer than before. I searched through my memory for a quote from Plato for him and finally found one. "Mr. Alexander Roth, listen to me before you sleep!" He opened one eye and closed the other, struggling to focus on me. I still hadn't realized that a captain like him would find sleep after travel to be a blessing. "I'm listening." Like a dreamer or a poet, I recited the quote to him in a gentle melody that made him smile deliriously.
