« This was the advantage and disadvantage of a handwritten letter, compared to an e-mail, one could not read and reread what one had written after it had been sent. Once in the mailbox, she was gone. It was an object that no longer belonged to you, an object that became the property of the recipient who was free to do with it what he wanted. So that one remembered the general impression that emerged from the letter rather than the precise words that had been used. It was like giving: when you give an object, you only keep the memory. »
