Famous quotes containing the word letters:
“Do not write me studied letters but ramble as you please.”
—Thomas Jefferson (17431826)
“And graven with diamonds in letters plain
There is written her fair neck round about:
Noli me tangere for Caesars I am,
And wild for to hold though I seem tame.”
—Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?1542)
“If you are one of the hewers of wood and drawers of small weekly paychecks, your letters will have to contain some few items of news or they will be accounted dry stuff.... But if you happen to be of a literary turn of mind, or are, in any way, likely to become famous, you may settle down to an afternoon of letter-writing on nothing more sprightly in the way of news than the shifting of the wind from south to south-east.”
—Robert Benchley (18891945)
