Famous quotes containing the words open and/or letters:

    “Betray, kind husband, Thy spouse to our sights,
    And let mine amorous soul court Thy mild Dove,
    Who is most true and pleasing to Thee then
    When she is embraced and open to most men.”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    “Most personal correspondence of today consists of letters the first half of which are given over to an indexed statement of why the writer hasn’t written before, followed by one paragraph of small talk, with the remainder devoted to reasons why it is imperative that the letter be brought to a close.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
