“He could not say goodbye to these three rooms as he could to a house he had loved: hotel rooms accepted departures emotionlessly.”
Stephen King, The Talisman

Hans Christian Andersen
“At that, the wise man smiled and said, 'Has your trip really been all in vain? Are you not returning richer in knowledge?'
'Yes,' answered the prince, 'I have gained THIS knowledge, that contentment is a rare gift on this earth.'
'And I have learned,' said the princess, 'that to be contented, one needs nothing more than simply - to be contented!'
Whereupon the price took the princess's hand; they looked at each other with an expression at deepest love. And the wise man blessed them and said, 'In your own hearts, you have found the true talisman! Guard it carefully, and the evil spirit of discontentment shall never in all eternity have any power over you!”
Hans Christian Andersen
