The theme of the novel that this excerpt best addresses is the self-destructive nature of obsession. The narrator uses the White Whale as a symbol for every obsession that drives a man forward while, at the same time, it destroys him from within. This destruction is apparent in the fact that this man is living with "half a heart and half a lung" because the obsession has eaten the rest.

Below is the excerpt that can be found elsewhere:

<span>Now some millmen want to cut all the Calaveras trees into lumber and money. But we have found a better use for them. No doubt these trees would make good lumber after passing through a sawmill, as George Washington after passing through the hands of a French cook would have made good food. But both for Washington and the tree that bears his name higher uses have been found.
