"One may discover a new side to his most intimate friend when for the first time he hears him speak in public. He will be stranger to him as he is more familiar to the audience. The longest intimacy could not foretell how he would behave then."
Henry David Thoreau"How often we find ourselves turning our backs on our actual friends, that we may go and meet their ideal cousins."
Henry David Thoreau"Humility must always be the portion of any man who receives acclaim earned in the blood of his followers and the sacrifices of his friends."
Dwight David Eisenhower"Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend."
Martin Luther King"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
Martin Luther King"A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend."
Logan Pearsall Smith"Sympathy constitutes friendship; but in love there is a sort of antipathy, or opposing passion. Each strives to be the other, and both together make up one whole."
Miguel de Cervantes"True friendship is like sound health, the value of it is seldom known until it be lost."
Charles Caleb Colton
