A foreign tourist made a special trip to the residence of the learned Polish rabbi, Hofetz Chaim. On entering the rabbi’s house, he was astonished to see it practically bare, except for a table, a work-bench, and some shelves of books.
“Rabbi, where is all your furniture?” asked the tourist
“Where is yours?” replied the rabbi.
“Mine? Why? I’m a visitor here. I’m only passing through,”
“So am I,” replied the rabbi.
