Famous quotes containing the words letter and/or names:
“With the nippers to wheel round the houses
And the hall to paint in his old trousers
And that letter to her mother
Saying Wont you come for the summer.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“Consider the islands bearing the names of all the saints, bristling with forts like chestnut-burs, or Echinidæ, yet the police will not let a couple of Irishmen have a private sparring- match on one of them, as it is a government monopoly; all the great seaports are in a boxing attitude, and you must sail prudently between two tiers of stony knuckles before you come to feel the warmth of their breasts.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
