FRIENDSHIP & LOYALTY
The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.
Hubert Humphrey
Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.
unknown
Many kinds of fruit grow upon the tree
of life, but none so sweet as friendship; as with the orange tree its blossoms
and fruit appear at the same time, full of refreshment for sense and for soul.
Lucy Larcom
"Stay" is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary.
Amos Bronson Alcott
One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and
to be understood.
Seneca
A real friend is one who walks in when
the rest of the world walks out.
Walter Winchell
What is a Friend? I'll tell you. It is
a person with whom you dare to be yourself. Your soul can go naked with him.
He seems to ask you to put on nothing, only to be what you really are.
When you are with him, you do not have to be on your guard. You can say what you think, so long as it is genuinely you.
He understands those contradictions in your nature that cause others to misjudge you. With him you breathe freely—you can avow your little vanities and envies and absurdities, and in opening them up to him they are dissolved on the white ocean of his loyalty.
He understands.—You can weep with him, laugh with him, pray with him—through and underneath it all he sees, knows and loves you.

No person is your friend who demands your silence or denies your right to grow.
Alice Walker
Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together.
Woodrow Wilson
When it hurts to look back, and you're
scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be
there.

What is the secret of your life? Tell me, that I may make mine beautiful,
too.

I had a friend.
Some people
make the world SPECIAL just by being in it.
unknown
Few people give themselves time to be friends.
Robert Southey
To be without a friend is to be poor indeed.
Proverb from
Somalia
Friendship is an education. It draws the
friend out of himself and all that is selfish and ignoble in him and leads
him to life's higher levels of altruism and sacrifice. Many a man has been
saved from a life of frivolity and emptiness to a career of noble service
by finding at a critical hour the right kind of friend.
G. D. Prentice
My coat and I live comfortably together.
It has assumed all my wrinkles, does not hurt me anywhere, has moulded itself
on my deformities, and is complacent to all my movements, and I only feel
its presence because it keeps me warm. Old coats and old friends are the same
thing.
Victor Hugo
He who throws away a friend is as bad as
he who throws away his life.
Sophocles
We learn our virtues from the friends who
love us; our faults from the enemy who hates us. We cannot easily discover
our real character from a friend. He is a mirror on which the warmth of our
breath impedes the clearness of the reflection.
Johann Paul
Friedrich Richter
True friends, like ivy and the wall
Both stand together, and together fall.
Thomas Carlyle
A best friend is like a four-leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have.
unknown
People who have warm friends are healthier
and happier than those who have none. A single real friend is a treasure worth
more than gold or precious stones. Money can buy many things, good and evil.
All the wealth of the world could not buy you a friend or pay you for the
loss of one.
G. D. Prentice
If a man could mount to Heaven and survey the mighty
universe, his admiration of its beauties would be much diminished unless he
had someone to share in his pleasure.
Cicero
Thy friendship oft has made my heart to
ache: Do be my enemy—for friendship's sake.
William Blake
Trouble is a great sieve through which we sift our acquaintances; those who
are too big to pass through are friends.
North Carolina
Churchman
Most people walk in and out of our lives, but only true friends leave footprints in our hearts.
unknown
Treat a friend as a person who may someday
become your enemy; an enemy as a person who may someday become your friend.
George Bernard Shaw
A day for toil, an hour for sport,
But for a friend is life too short.
Good friends are like stars. . . You don't always see them, but you know they are there.
unknown
Friendship is the hardest thing in the
world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But if you haven't
learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.
Muhammad Ali
Friendship cheers like a sunbeam; charms
like a good story; inspires like a brave leader; binds like a golden chain;
guides like a heavenly vision.
Newell D. Hillis
In prosperity our friends know us; in adversity
we know our friends.
John Churton
Collins
I asked God for water, he gave me an ocean.
I asked God for a flower, he gave me a garden.
I asked God for a tree, he gave me a forest.
I asked God for a friend, he gave me YOU.
unknown
The ornament of a house is the friends
who frequent it.
A brother may not be a friend, but a friend
will always be a brother.
Benjamin Franklin
I desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end,
when I come to lay down the reins of power, I have lost every other friend
on earth, I shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be
down inside of me.
Abraham Lincoln
Greater love hath no man than this, that
a man lay down his life for his friends.
New Testament:
John 15:13
I never considered a difference of opinion
in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.
Thomas Jefferson
An open foe may prove a curse;
But a pretended friend is worse.
Benjamin Franklin
Every one must have felt that a cheerful
friend is like a sunny day, which sheds its brightness on all around; and
most of us can, as we choose make of this world a palace or a prison.
Sir John Lubbock
When adversities flow, then love ebbs; but friendship standeth stiffly in
storms.
John Lyly
The mind is rarely so disturbed, but that
the company of a friend will restore it to some degree of tranquility and
sedateness.
Adam Smith
Do good to thy friend to keep him, to thy enemy to gain
him.
Benjamin Franklin
A drop of honey catches more flies than
a gallon of gall." So with men. If you would win a man to your cause,
first convince hiim that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of
honey which catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the highroad to
his reason . . .
Abraham Lincoln
Real friends are people who let you have
your own truths.
Reprove your friends in secret, praise them openly.
Publilius Syrus
Despite the bitterness engendered by the
Civil War, Lincoln never missed an opportunity to speak kindly of the South.
An ardent Union supporter once took him to task for this attitude. "Why
try to make friends with your enemies?" he protested. "You should
destroy them."
"Am I not destroying
my enemies," gently replied Lincoln, "When I make friends
of them?"
We need someone to believe in us—if
we do well, we want our work commended, our faith corroborated. The individual
who thinks well of you, who keeps his mind on your good qualities, and does
not look for flaws, is your friend. Who is my brother? I'll tell you: he is
one who recognizes the good in me.
Elbert
Hubbard
No man is useless who has a friend, and if we are loved we are indispensable.
Robert
Louis Stevenson

If you open the door to the magnetic power of friendship, souls of like vibrations will be attracted to you.
Paramahansa
Yogananda
This communicating of a man's self to his friend works two contrary effects, for it redoubleth joys, and cutteth griefs in half.

Flowing Thoughtfulness
When
one person is thoughtful to another, the thoughtfulness gets carried on and
on.
It is like a river of kindness, once blocked by rocks,
That is suddenly opened by a single person's kind thought or act.
The river runs freely again, and continues to flow,
Moving more rocks and reaching the hearts of others.
When one person is thoughtful to another the thoughtfulness gets carried on
and on.
The more we get together and help each other,
The more friendship there can be throughout many different places.
The friendship can begin like a small stream in a single neighborhood.
And then expand throughout a river of districts, states, countries, and even
continents.
When one person is thoughtful to another, the thoughtfulness gets carried
on and on.
Soon, we could have a whole ocean of friendships, and that's how the world
was created
And how it should always be.
Mattie

Make
new friends but keep the old, those are silver, these are gold.

The
glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor
the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one
when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust
him.
Ralph
Waldo Emerson
May
there always be work for your hands to do;
May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us; when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
