15 June, 1926 (Berlin) But I simply - love you.

14 July, 1926 (Berlin) I want to tell you... no, please consider it well - I want to tell you that: I love you without end.

28 June, 1926 (Berlin) My little one, so long unkissed…

17 April, 1937 (Paris) My happiness, I can’t stand being without you any longer. I kiss you, I kiss you, and I kiss you again.

10 February, 1937 (Paris) Maybe we don’t have the funds for five years ahead, but we do for the summer.

17 May, 1937 (Paris) My darling, how wildly happy I am to see you.

8 November, 1923 (Berlin) I cannot write a word without hearing how you will pronounce it.

4 June, 1939 (London) My darling, I love you, I kiss you, I’ll be back soon, please get ready for our trip to the mountains.

7 June, 1926 (Berlin) I love you, monkeykins.

8 November, 1923 (Berlin) Your eyes – which shine so wonder-struck when, with your head thrown back, you tell something funny – your eyes, your voice, lips, your shoulders – so light, sunny…

21 April, 1937 (Paris) And yet I think you should not settle (without me) in Paris.

9 May, 1930 (Berlin) So, my happiness. Kisses. I won't be back late.

23 April, 1937 (Paris) Thank you, my adorable life, for your little birthday greetings.

19 August, 1925 (Sopot) My little kitten, my joy, how happily I love you today… I kiss you – but won’t say where, there are no words for that.

28 June, 1926 (Berlin) My Rollikins, In the morning, I washed, I shaved, put on the grey trousers and the dark blue jacket.

7 April, 1939 (London) My dear love, I got another 10 guineas on top of those 21 pounds, and they’re for Mother. Shall I send them to her from here (if possible)?

4 February, 1937 (Paris) My darling, how are you, what are you, I feel agonisingly empty without you.

9 February, 1945 (Baltimore, MD) Love you.

4 July, 1926 (Berlin) I do not know what else I might need except you… my darling.
