Dear Valeria,

The Beatles came backstage after one of my lectures, and they said to me: “Even from an early age we have been seeking a highly spiritual existence. We tried drugs and that didn't work.” They are such practical and intelligent young boys that it took them only two days to find that Transcendental Meditation is the answer.

Peace and love,

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

Carl

Dear Valeria,

This process of the good life is not, I am convinced, a life for the faint-hearted. It involves the stretching and growing of becoming more and more of one’s potentialities. It involves the courage to be. It means launching oneself fully into the stream of life.

Very best,

Carl Rogers

Jean

Dear Valeria,

The historical record also reveals that the only periods during which the concentration of wealth has been halted or reversed are years following sustained political contestation — i.e. mass social movements.

Best regards,

Jean Anyon

Mia cara Valeria,

Se un bambino scrive nel suo quaderno «l'ago di Garda», ho la scelta tra correggere l'errore con un segnaccio rosso o blu, o seguirne l'ardito suggerimento e scrivere la storia e la geografia di questo «ago» importantissimo, segnato anche nella carta d'Italia.
[…] Un «libbro» con due b sarà soltanto un libro più pesante degli altri, o un libro sbagliato, o un libro specialissimo?

I miei ossequi,

Gianni Rodari
