I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.
Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.
FRIENDSHIP, FRIENDSHIP AT FIRST SIGHT
Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.
Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.
