“ Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over. Octavia Butler Writer
“ The firmest of friendships have been formed in mutual adversity, as iron is most strongly united by the fiercest flame. Charles Caleb Colton Writer
“ They who dare to ask anything of a friend, by their very request seem to imply that they would do anything for the sake of that friend. Marcus Tullius Cicero Philosopher
“ A female friend, amiable, clever, and devoted, is a possession more valuable than parks and palaces; and without such a muse, few men can succeed in life, none be contented. Benjamin Disraeli Former Leader Of The House Of Commons
“ The going away of friends does not make the remainder more precious. It takes so much from them as there was a common link. A. B. and C. make a party. A. dies. B. not only loses A. but all A.'s part in C. C. loses A.'s part in B., and so the alphabet sickens by subtraction of interchangeables. Charles Lamb Writer
