Not a day passes, but I get a letter from a child. They come sometimes singly, sometimes in batches of 50 or 100. Entire classes, where school teachers have read my stories, have written to me. I answer every one personally. When I was a child I know how, if I had received a real letter from an author whose book I'd read, I would have been the happiest boy alive. And if I am to do any good in this world my highest ambition will be to make children happy.

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "Not a day passes, but I get a letter from a child. They come sometimes singly, sometimes in batches of 50 or 100. Entire classes, where school teachers have read my stories, have written to me. I answer every one personally. When I was a child I know how, if I had received a real letter from an author whose book I'd read, I would have been the happiest boy alive. And if I am to do any good in this world my highest ambition will be to make children happy." in the context of "L. Frank Baum, Interview, originally published in the Philadelphia North American (3 October 1904); reprinted in The Baum Bugle (Spring 1985) http://www.washburn.edu/reference/cks/mapping/baum/" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
