"Friendship is always the union of a
part of one mind with a part of
another."
-- George Santayana --

............

"Lay down this rule of friendship:
neither ask nor consent to do what is wrong. The plea, 'for friendship's sake,' is a discreditable one, and should not be
admitted for a moment. We should ask
from friends and do for friends
only what is good."
-- Cicero/ TREATISE ON FRIENDSHIP --

........

"I'd rather have two good friends,
than 500,000 admirers."
-- E.E. Cummings --

............

"The friendships that last are those
wherein each friend respects the other's dignity to the point of not
really wanting anything from him."
-- Cyril Connolly --

............

"The shortness of an acquaintance is
in no way connected with the inner,
spiritual time during which a
friendship can develop and mature."
-- Vladimir Nabokov --

...........

"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible
comfort of feeling safe with a person! Having neither to weigh
thoughts nor measure words, but
pouring them all out just as they
are, chaff and grain together.
Certain that a faithful hand will take them and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away."
-- George Eliot --
