Letter of note

Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Carl Sandburg received so many letters (as many as 400 each week) that he often replied with a pre-written, standard form letter. This is what one of his fiercest critics received.

Dear Sir:

Thank you for your letter. I shall try to do better.

Carl Sandburg
