Phileas Fogg had won his wager, and had made his journey around the world in eighty days . . . The eccentric gentleman had thoroughly displayed all of his marvelous qualities of coolness and exactitude. But what then? What had he really gained by all this trouble? What had he brought back from this long and weary journey?
Nothing, say you? Perhaps so; nothing but a charming woman, who, strange as it may appear, made him the happiest of men!
Truly, would you not for less than that make the tour around the world?
—From Jules Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days
