"Somewhere in the shadow of the appalling Titanic disaster slinks--still living by the inexplicable grace of God--slinks a cur in human shape, to-day the most despicable human being in all the world.
In that grim midnight hour, already great in history, he found himself hemmed in by the band of heroes whose watchword and countersign rang out across the deep--"Women and children first!"
What did he do?
He scuttled to the stateroom deck, put on a woman's skirt, a woman's hat and a woman's veil, and picking his crafty way back among the brave and chivalric men who guarded the rail of the doomed ship, he filched a seat in one of the life-boats and saved his skin.
His identity is not yet known, though it will be in good time. So foul an act as that will out like murder.
This man still lives. Surely he was born and saved to set for men a new standard by which to measure infamy and shame. "
William S Burroughs 1990 |
