Love Letter of Great Men and Women

Beethoven to his Immortal Beloved:
you - my life - my all - farewell. Oh continue to love me -
never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved
L.

ever thine
ever mine
ever ours

Catherine the Great to Prince Potemkin:
Can one love anyone else having known you?...
There's not a man in the world that can equal you.
I have given secret orders to my body- down to the last hair- to stop showing you the smallest
sign of love.
Oh Monsieur Potemkin!
What a trick have you plated to unbalance a mind previously thought to be one of the best in
Europe.
