The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Danny's Own Story by Don Marquis: "Doctor Kirby, what is a quest?" He looks at
me kind of queer.
"Wherefore," says he, "this sudden thirst for
enlightenment?"
"I jest run acrost the word accidental-like," I
told him.
He looks at me awful hard, his eyes jest natcherally
digging into me. I felt like he knowed I had set
out to pump him. I wisht I hadn't tried it. Then
he tells me a quest is a hunt. And I'm glad
that's over with. But it ain't. Fur purty soon
