love letters of great men vol. 1

I'm reading the most amazing book, the title above. It's seriously one of the best reads I've found in a very long time. It's a compilation of love letters that famous men in history have written to the women they love. I have to post one of them.

"Don't write to legibly, or intelligibily as I have no occupation so pleasant as pondering for hours over your hieroglyphics, and for hours more trying to interpret your dark sayings.

A clearly written simply expressed letter is too like the lightening.

Cuff Cooper"

This book is filled of so many beautiful letters. It kills me. It's a really quick read but it's one you can read over and over. I can't wait to get the next volume.
