Description of Captain Hook, by his creator, J.M.Barrie: his hair was dressed in long curls, which at a little distance looked like black candles, and gave a singularly threatening expression to his handsome countenance. His eyes were of the blue of the forget-me-not, and of a profound melancholy, save when he was plunging his hook into you, at which time two red spots appeared in them and lit them horribly. In manner, something of the grand seigneur still clung to him, so that he even ripped you up with an air, and I have been told that he was a raconteur of repute. He was never more sinister than when he was most polite, which is probably the truest test of his breeding, and the elegance of his diction, even when he was swearing, no less than the distinction of his demeanor, showed him of a different cast from his crew. A man of indomitable courage, it is said that the only thing he shied at was the sight of his own blood, which was thick and of an unusual colour.”
