Captain Flint said to John, regarding his accident with sinking
the Swallow in SWALLOWDALE.
"When a thing's done, it's done, and if it's not done right,
do it differently next time. Worrying never made a sailor."
"We're all duffers sometimes, but it's only now and
then we get found out."
This is almost poetry, from WINTER HOLLIDAY...
Softly, at first, as if it hardly meant it, the snow began to fall.
