The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Master Key by L. Frank Baum: Both sailors began to thank him profusely for their rescue, but he

starve to death, and I'm glad I was able to bring you away with me."
"But you threatened to drop me into the sea," remarked the little
sailor, in a grieved voice.
"So I did," said Rob, laughing; "but I wouldn't have done it for the
world--not even to have saved my own life. Good-by!"
He turned the indicator and mounted skyward, to the unbounded
amazement of the fishermen, who stared after him with round eyes
and wide open mouths.
