THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

Jan 20,1993

Dear Bill,

     When I walked in this office just now I felt the same wonder and respect that I felt four years ago. I know that you will feel that, too.  

     I wish you great happiness here. I never felt the loneliness some Presidents have described.

     There will be very tough times, made even more difficult by criticism you may think is not fair. I'm not a very good one to give advice; but just don't let the criticism discourage you or push you off course.

     You will be our President when you read this note. I wish you well. I wish your family well.

      Your success now is our country's success. I am rooting for you.

                      Good Luck-

                                           George

Takk for alt,
