“The making of letters in every form is for me the purest
and the greatest pleasure, and at many stages of my life it was to me what a
song is to the singer, a picture to the painter, a shout to the elated, or a
sign to the oppressed. It was and is for me the most happy and perfect
expression of my life.”
~ Rudolph Koch
