Prisoners of Power excerpt - Arkady and Boris Strugatsky

This quote was added by user60915
He developed a taste for the broth very quickly. Before he knew it, a third of the soup had vanished from the kettle. Regretfully, he moved away, rested for a while, and dried the spoon. But he couldn't control himself: he scooped up from the very bottom more of those delicious brown chunks of meat that melted in his mouth. Then he moved away, dried the spoon again, and placed it across the top of the kettle. Now the time had come to express his appreciation to his invisible host.

a capital 'A' is not required after the comma in the first sentence. Other than that, good quote
