B. came in just as I had got everything into a pile. He stared at the bed, and asked me what I was doing. I told him I was packing. "Great Heavens!" he exclaimed. "I thought you were moving! What do you think we are going to do  camp out?" "No!" I replied. "But these are the things I have been advised to take with me. What is the use of people giving you advice if you don't take it?" He said: "Oh! take as much advice as you like; that always comes in useful to give away.

with me, I have felt so inclined for writing; and it has quite upset me that, in consequence of not having brought any paper and pens and ink with me, I have been unable to sit down and do a lot of work, but have been compelled, instead, to lounge about all day with my hands in my pockets. Accordingly, I always take plenty of paper and pens and ink with me now, wherever I go, so that when the desire for work comes to me I need not check it. That this craving for work should have troubled me so often, when I had no paper, pens, and ink by me, and that it never, by any chance, visits me now, when I am careful to be in a position to gratify it, is a matter over which I have often puzzled. But when it does come I shall be ready for it. I also put on the bed a few volumes of Goethe, because I thought it would be so pleasant to read him in his own country. And I decided to take a sponge, together with a small portable bath, because a cold bath is so refreshing the first thing in the morning.  ANY PAPER AND PENS AND INK WITH ME I HAVE FELT SO INCLINED FOR WRITING AND IT HAS QUITE UPSET ME THAT IN CONSEQUENCE OF NOT HAVING BROUGHT ANY PAPER AND PENS AND INK WITH ME I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO SIT DOWN AND DO A LOT OF WORK BUT HAVE BEEN COMPELLED INSTEAD TO LOUNGE ABOUT ALL DAY WITH MY HANDS IN MY POCKETS ACCORDINGLY I ALWAYS TAKE PLENTY OF PAPER AND PENS AND INK WITH ME NOW WHEREVER I GO SO THAT WHEN THE DESIRE FOR WORK COMES TO ME I NEED NOT CHECK IT THAT THIS CRAVING FOR WORK SHOULD HAVE TROUBLED ME SO OFTEN WHEN I HAD NO PAPER PENS AND INK BY ME AND THAT IT NEVER BY ANY CHANCE VISITS ME NOW WHEN I AM CAREFUL TO BE IN A POSITION TO GRATIFY IT IS A MATTER OVER WHICH I HAVE OFTEN PUZZLED BUT WHEN IT DOES COME I SHALL BE READY FOR IT I ALSO PUT ON THE BED A FEW VOLUMES OF GIRTA BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SO PLEASANT TO READ HIM IN HIS OWN COUNTRY AND I DECIDED TO TAKE A SPONGE TOGETHER WITH A SMALL PORTABLE BATH BECAUSE A COLD BATH IS SO REFRESHING THE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING
