and knowing that all your letters are answered, and you can see the wood on it
again.

leave unmentioned what the recipient already knows, and instead tell him
something new.

Correspondences are like small clothes before
the invention of suspenders; it is impossible to keep them up.

Smith

packet of the postman. Eternal love and instant payment!

Jerrold
What a lot we lost when we stopped writing
letters. You can't reread a phone call.

To send a letter is a good way to go somewhere
without moving anything but your heart.
