It is much, much worse to receive bad news through the written word than by somebody simply telling you, and I’m sure you understand why.

God laughs again when two brothers divide their land with a string, saying to each other, 'This side is mine and that side is yours.' He laughs and says to Himself, 'The whole universe belongs to Me, but they say they own this portion or that portion.'
