Call Letters

Famous quotes containing the words call and/or letters:

    I call on those that call me son,
    Grandson, or great-grandson,
    On uncles, aunts, great-uncles or great-aunts
    To judge what I have done.
    Have I, that put it into words,
    Spoilt what old loins have sent?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Deafness produces bizarre effects, reversing the natural order of things; the interchange of letters is the conversation of the deaf, and the only link with society. I would be in despair, for instance, over seeing you speak, but, instead, I am only too happy to hear you write.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
