QuotationIn Louisville some weeks ago I found the new Suzuki anthology (Essentials of Zen B[uddhism, New York, 1962])-really a thorough "Reader" and since reading it I am almost irresistibly tempted to write him another letter. Poor good old man. I know he must be flooded with mail as I am, and that he does what I do: puts the letters in a big box and forgets them.
Quotation SourceTurning Toward the World: The Pivotal Years. The Journals of Thomas Merton, Volume 4, 1960-1963.; Edited by Victor A. Kramer. / San Francisco : Harper Collins. 1996, p. 233
