If instead of a gem, or even a flower, we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend, that would be giving as the angels give.

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.
