"I said, names aren't important," he repeated.
There was a silence between them for some seconds,
then the Ranger said: "Do you know what is important?"
Will shook his head.
"Supper is important!"

"People think that if a man has undergone any hardship, he should have a reward;
but for my part, if I have done the hardest possible days work,
and then come to sit down in a corner and eat my supper comfortably --
why, then I don't think I deserve any reward for my hard day's work --
for am I not now at peace? Is my supper not good?
My peace and my supper are my reward, dear Hawthorne."
-- Herman Melville, "Letter to Nathaniel Hawthorne"
