Letters

Famous quotes containing the word letters:

    Most personal correspondence of today consists of letters the first half of which are given over to an indexed statement of why the writer hasn’t written before, followed by one paragraph of small talk, with the remainder devoted to reasons why it is imperative that the letter be brought to a close.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    Certainly, young children can begin to practice making letters and numbers and solving problems, but this should be done without workbooks. Young children need to learn initiative, autonomy, industry, and competence before they learn that answers can be right or wrong.
    David Elkind (20th century)

    My spelling is Wobbly. It’s good spelling but it Wobbles, and the letters get in the wrong places.
    —A.A. (Alan Alexander)
