“the saddest letter ever written” – Posted by Anne.
To put yourself into a position where you would not only be satisfied with the scraps from someone’s table – but you would be fully nourished on those meager scraps … Oh, it is sad.
To me the saddest line in the letter is: “You curse the destiny which has made the feeling concentrate itself on you.”
It was a blessing to be loved the way I loved him. But a curse too, because he knew he would have to hurt me anyway.
