Read this excerpt from The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe:

But [once I was safely back on land,] my ill fate pushed me on now with an obstinacy that nothing could resist; and though I had several times loud calls from my reason, and my more composed judgment, to go home, yet I had no power to do it.
