"He, I now reflected, [...] had always preferred the right-hand of the two salons at Sacher's café, as he would time and again maintain, because of the more comfortable chairs but primarily because of the much better paintings hanging there, I myself, because of the foreign newspapers, mainly the English and French papers, available there and also because of the much better atmosphere, actually preferred the left-hand one, and so we had, whenever I was in Vienna, whenever we went to Sacher's, and we liked going to Sacher's more than anything else, gone alternately to the left-hand and to the right-hand salon of Sacher's café, which in fact was better for our speculations than any other place, and hence the ideal one."
