Twice a day, on his way to and from school, little Charlie Bucket had to walk right past the gates of the factory. And every time he went by, he would begin to walk very, very slowly, and he would hold his nose high in the air and take long deep sniffs of the gorgeous chocolatey smell all around him. [1964, Roald Dahl, “Here Comes Charlie”, in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, New York, N.Y.: Alfred A. Knopf, pages 9–10:]
