So powerfully did the whole grim aspect of Ahab affect me, and the livid brand which streaked it, that for the first few moments, I hardly noted that not a little of this overbearing grimness was owing to the barbaric white leg upon which he partly stood. It had previously come to me that this ivory leg had at sea been fashioned from the polished bone of the sperm whale’s jaw.
—Moby-Dic, Herman Melville
