Famous quotes containing the words call and/or letters:
“The little Strangs say the “good words,” as they call them, before going to bed, aloud and at their father’s knee, or rather in the pit of his stomach. One of them was lately heard to say “Forgive us our christmasses as we forgive them that christmas against us.””
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“Letters are above all useful as a means of expressing the ideal self; and no other method of communication is quite so good for this purpose.... In letters we can reform without practice, beg without humiliation, snip and shape embarrassing experiences to the measure of our own desires....”
—Elizabeth Hardwick (b. 1916)
