- “If the stallion was alive, he was going to set him free and give him his chance to fight for life.”
- “He only knew that he had had his choice of remaining in the water alone or being pulled by the Black. If he was to die, he would rather die with the mighty stallion than alone.”
- How will we get him on board?
- The Black saved my life. I can't leave him behind!
- “The days passed and the boy strove desperately to find food to keep himself alive; he caught only one more fish - it would be impossible for him to depend upon the sea for his living.”
- “He put the sugar in the palm of his hand and hesitantly held it out to the stallion.”
- “You just have to take us both, Captain! I can’t leave him!”
- “Alec took his handkerchief and wrapped it around the Black’s leg to try to stop the bleeding.”
