“Any time you have national letters of intent come in, you're always nervous that the fax machine may be broken or anything along those lines. This signing today is unique because I think we've got every position filled. There aren't many times in college basketball you have that opportunity.”
Thad Matta
“What a lot we lost when we stopped writing letters. You can't reread a phone call.”
Liz Carpenter
“This is not a letter but my arms around you for a brief moment”
Katherine Mansfield
“We lay aside letters never to read them again, and at last we destroy them out of discretion, and so disappears the most beautiful, the most immediate breath of life, irrecoverable for ourselves and for others.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“In old age we are like a batch of letters that someone has sent. We are no longer in the passing, we have arrived.”
Knut Hamsun
“You get all these things, there are all these letters and gifts, sometimes strange ones; most of the time it can be really nice. But at the same time, it's overwhelming. Because I know I'm going to have to look through it. Most of it is filling the corners of my house and I can't respond to it all right away.”
Viggo Mortensen
“The best time to frame an answer to the letters of a friend, is the moment you receive them. Then the warmth of friendship, and the intelligence received, most forcibly cooperate.”
William Shenstone
