"I have seen no inland part of any country so barren as this."
"They may appear human, but they are scarcely above brutes in their way of living."
"I have flogged men for less than what these natives dare to do in their insolence."
"I had the ambition to not only go farther than any man had been before, but as far as it was possible for a man to go."
