- Notes: "... I am sorry that you have been caused inconvenience in this instance. I can only say that while this is one instance to you, it is one of thousands of similar instances that have involved time and inconvenience for me. If I had spent my entire time for the last thirty-five years answering the mail that has been sent, much of it requesting autographs, which to me seem of the most trivial importance, the piles would still be stacked high in front of me... It seems to me there are so many other worth-while things to do in life..."
