We are just tourists

In the last century a tourist from the States visited the famous Polish rabbi the Chafetz Chaim.

He was astonished to see that the rabbi's home was just a simple room filled with books.  The only furniture was a table and a bench.

"Rabbi, where is your furniture?', asked the tourist

"Where is yours?", replied Chafetz

"Mine?  But I'm only a visitor here."

"So am I", said the rabbi.
