"What is that object?"
"That is not an object. It flies. It is an aeroplane. It is my aeroplane." And I was proud to have him learn that I could fly.

He got a good estate by merchandise, and leaving off his trade, lived afterwards at York; from whence he had mared my mother, whose relations were named Robinson, a very good family in that country, and from whom I was called Robinson Kreutznaer; but, by the usual corruption of words in England, we are now called, nay, we call ourselves and write our name, Crusoe; and so my companions always called me.
