You can't eat
your friends and have them too.
-- Budd Schulberg
If you have no
friends to share or rejoice in your success in life -- if
you cannot look back to those whom you owe gratitude, or
forward to those to whom you ought to afford protection,
still it is no less incumbent on you to move steadily in the
path of duty; for your active excretions are due not only to
society; but in humble gratitude to the Being who made you a
member of it, with powers to save yourself and others.
-- Sir Walter Scott
1771-1832, British Novelist,
Poet
Old friends
are best. King James used to call for his old shoes; they
were easiest for his feet.
-- John Selden
1584-1654, British Jurist,
Statesman
Friendship
always benefits; love sometimes injures.
-- Seneca
4 B.C. – 65 A.D.,
Spanish-born Roman Statesman, philosopher
