Statement

"When it was dark I set by my
camp-fire smoking, and feeling pretty
well satisfied; but by and by it got sort
of lonesome, and so I went and set
on the bank and listened to the
current swashing along, and counted
the stars and drift-logs and rafts that
come down, and then went to bed;
there aint no better way to put in time
when you are lonesome; you can't
stay so, you soon get over it."

from The Adventures of Huckleberry
Finn by Mark Twain
