{{Zitat|Text=17 November 1957
My dear Mroczkowski, <br>
My wife and I are <u>very</u> gratified for your invitation [from] you <u>and</u> your wife. It would, of course, but for the thought of the trouble we should be giving, be far more pleasant to have lunch <u>chez vous</u>.<br>
I am dreadfully sorry that we cannot manage this Tuesday; but I do hope that you will find a chance to ask us again! (If I go to America at all, I will not be until the middle of March at the earliest). This is a very crowded week, and my wife is unfortunately not able to do many things (pleasant or otherwise) in succession. Tuesday is quite a good day usually. <br>
I do not understand your use of 'bold'! It is extraordinarily kind of you both to bother about us. We are quite unimportant people. And I do hope that as I have been bold enough to address you as a colleague without title you will please do the same to me.<ref name=TG>[http://www.tolkienguide.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=1570&forum=18&post_id=8186#forumpost8186 1957 letter on eBay to Professor Przemyslaw Mroczkowski], [http://www.tolkienguide.com/ Tolkienguide.com], abgerufen am 23.
