I found something like this here:
http://www.simonteakettle.com/wrbook.htm
(and in other sources)
It's:
"If you decide to enter the page, take a knife and some matches, and
something that will float. Take something you can hold onto, and a
prism to split the light and a talisman that works, which should be
hung from a chain around your neck: that's for getting back."
-- From Margaret Atwood, "The Page," from Murder in the Dark
~ Molly Wms.
