A mollycoddle is a body of man entirely surrounded by super-civilization.

Civilization – is the primitive plus refinement and adornment – caviar – olives – after dinner speeches – and racing through fields of beauty at a hundred miles an hour.

One touch of hatchase makes the whole world kin.

For the first time in his life, Marshall felt the glorious thrill and tingle – the soul music that goes with the words "back home!"
