[To J.B. Sutton, 31 Dec 41]
I have just farted with the sound of an iron ruler twanging in a desk-lid and the smell of a west wind over a decaying patch of red cabbages.
[To Norman Iles, 7 April 43]
There's so much to be learnt - & of course the best thing to have is a 'genuine love of literature'. I haven't got one, & I don't know a shop where they sell them.
