Oh, that depends how you look at it. ERHART. [Emphatically.] Well, then, I tell you what it is, Aunt Ella; you mustn't think of going home again for the present. ELLA RENTHEIM. No, I am not thinking of it. ERHART. You must remain in town; for here you can have your choice of all the best doctors. ELLA RENTHEIM. That was what I thought when I left home. ERHART. And then you must be sure and find a really nice place to live-- quiet, comfortable rooms. ELLA RENTHEIM. I went this morning to the old ones, where I used to stay before. ERHART. Oh, well, you were comfortable enough there.
The Bible, King James version, Book 38: Zechariah

Book 38 Zechariah 38:001:001 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying, 38:001:002 The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers. 38:001:003 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. 38:001:004 Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the LORD. 38:001:005 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever? 38:001:006 But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants
ELLA RENTHEIM. Yes, but I shall not be staying there after all. ERHART. Indeed? Why not? ELLA RENTHEIM. I changed my mind after coming out here. ERHART. [Surprised.] Really? Changed you mind? MRS. BORKMAN. [Crocheting; without looking up.] Your aunt will live here, in her own house, Erhart. ERHART. [Looking from one to the other alternately.] Here, with us? Is this true, Aunt? ELLA RENTHEIM. Yes, that is what I made up my mind to do. MRS. BORKMAN. [As before.] Everything here belongs to your aunt, you know.
