...Heinrich Zangger [Berlin,] 11 July [1916] Dear Friend, Your long letter, in which you informed me about how my boys are faring, pleased me very much, but it also filled me with a certain concern in one respect. Whenever my wife confided in any one of my friends, I almost always had to give him up for lost. ... So don't allow the slightest drop of venom into your subconsciousness.

...Dear Parents and Grandparents...
...said to be one of the world's richest people. Just how rich are you? If you know how rich you are, my dear, then you're not really rich. Frankly, I don't want to put numbers [out there], I don't want to attract any more lawsuits. The vultures want a piece of the Marcos meat, watching every figure mentioned...
