Fate chooses
our relatives, we choose our friends.

Do not have
evil-doers for friends, do not have low people for friends:
have virtuous people for friends, have for friends the best
of men.

all of us.

The greatest
good you can do for another is not just to share your riches
but to reveal to him his own.
-- Benjamin Disraeli
1804-1881, British Statesman,
Prime Minister
To find a
friend one must close one eye -- to keep him, two.
-- Norman Douglas
1868-1952, British Author
Friendship is
held to be the severest test of character. It is easy, we
think, to be loyal to a family and clan, whose blood is in
your own veins. Love between a man and a woman is founded on
the mating instinct and is not free from desire and
self-seeking. But to have a friend and to be true under any
and all trials is the mark of a man!
-- Charles Alexander Eastman
Friendship is
genuine when two friends can enjoy each others company
without speaking a word to one another.
-- George Ebers
