I am not hiding but I don't want to see anyone - except you, of course, whenever you like and I hope very soon... "Neuilly-sur-Seine, 9 August [1951] : " ... You speak to me of serious events in Denmark? To hell with these serious events! What will be serious is if I do not see you in Paris before September 14! As agreed! World events or even Baltic events, you know, I don't give a damn! And you don't care either! There won't be a war before September 14, 1951. So there's no reason to postpone your trip. "Neuilly-sur-Seine, "Monday" [20 August 1951]. "« ... No need to tell anyone about us. SILENCE IS GOLDEN. I PRAY TO YOU! YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE WE ARE... PERHAPS IN ENGLAND, IT SEEMS TO YOU ... PATATA... PATATI. I'm not hiding, but I don't show myself either... " - Etc.
