Famous quotes containing the words call and/or letters:
“Whom the gods wish to destroy they first call promising.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital. I sometimes discuss the application of a compress or a wisp of hay under a broken limb, but not the bearing and merits of a political movement. I make gruel—not speeches; I write letters home for wounded soldiers, not political addresses.”
—Clara Barton (1821–1912)
