In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit.
Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an ozzy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.
-J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, or There and Back again.

There lived a hobbit in a hole in the ground. It was not a dirty hole, filthy and wet, full of worm ends and filthy smell, and it is not yet dry, wide, sandy and nowhere to sit on or to eat, but it is a hobbit hole, where he can feel comfortable.
