You need not think that because we chanced to be born of the same parents, I shall suffer you to fasten me down by even the feeblest claim: I can tell you this--if the whole human race, ourselves excepted, were swept away, and we two stood alone on the earth, I would leave you in the old world, and betake myself to the new."
No imagines que porque hayamos nacido de los mismos padres voy a estar tolerando siempre tus quejas y tus lamentaciones. Te digo más: si toda la raza humana fuera borrada del mapa y quedásemos tú y yo solas, te abandonaría en el Viejo Mundo y me marcharía al Nuevo.
