    “A man who publishes his letters becomes a nudist—nothing shields him from the world’s gaze except his bare skin. A writer, writing away, can always fix himself up to make himself more presentable, but a man who has written a letter is stuck with it for all time.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    “With the noise of the mourning of the Swattish nation!
    Fallen is at length
    Its tower of strength;
    Its sun is dimmed ere it had nooned;
    Dead lies the great Ahkoond,
    The great Ahkoond of Swat
    Is not!”
    —George Thomas Lanigan (1845–1886)

    “Right as the humour of melancholy
    Causeth full many a man in sleep to cry
    For fear of blacke bears, or bulles black,
    Or elles blacke devils will them take.”
    —Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
