“Every time I go away from home, among strangers, I feel my need of you. My friends here, even my sisters, seem cold and distant when compared with you. O there is no one like the dear one who nestles in our hearts and loves us always.”

“You know me as well or better than I do myself. You know my former prejudices, and my present thoughts — you know my weaknesses, my vanity, my whole mind ; you have converted me from one erroneous way, let me hope you will attempt to correct what others are wrong. Again and again I attempt to say what I feel, but I cannot.”
