Power of the great fish.

Page 63, second paragraph:
"He is a great fish and I must convince him, he thought. I must never let him learn his strength nor what he could do if he made his run. If I were him I would put in everything now and go until something broke. But, thank God, they are not as intelligent as we who kill them; although they are more noble and more able."
In my opinion this is the deepest sentence that we've read so far because of the idea of how ideas are fish and the ideas come from the writers personal life. What I think this sentence is saying is that his ideas ever really took over or fulfilled their full potential that they could be dangerous but we as people kill and suppress our most powerful thoughts, ideas, and emotions.
