"Bercak coklat dari kanker kulit baik hati yang dibawa matahari dari pantulannya di laut tropis ada di pipinya. Bercak-bercak mengalir di sisi wajahnya dan tangannya memiliki bekas luka yang dalam dari memegang ikan berat di tali. Tapi tidak ada bekas luka ini yang segar. Mereka setua erosi di padang pasir tanpa ikan."

--- Ernest Hemingway

Versi Bahasa Inggris

The brown blotches of the benevolent skin cancer the sun brings from its reflection on the tropic sea were on his cheeks. The blotches ran well down the sides of his face and his hands had the deep-creased scars from handling heavy fish on the cords. But none of these scars were fresh. They were as old as erosions in a fishless desert.
