The Odyssey - pg. 172

Then Zeus-born Odysseus answered him with a speech:
"Eumaeos, you have stirred the heart very much in my breast
As you tell the details of the pain you suffered in your heart.
But Zeus has provided good for along with evil
When, having suffered much, you reached the home of a man
Who was mild, and who furnished you with food and drink
Kindly. And you live a good life. But as for me,
I reach here after wandering to many cities of men."
