A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else. ~ Len Wein
True Friend Is quotes by Len Wein
If I had even been his friend, well and good: the artful indiscretion of the true friend is intelligible to everybody; but I only saw Pechorin once in my life - on the high-road - and, consequently, I cannot cherish towards him that inexplicable hatred, which, hiding its face under the mask of friendship, awaits but the death or misfortune of the beloved object to burst over its head in a storm of reproaches, admonitions, scoffs and regrets. ~ Mikhail Lermontov
True Friend Is quotes by Mikhail Lermontov
Shushtari proverb "Any gift from a true friend is valuable, even if it's a hollow walnut shell." It's fair to say that the Shushtari floating in my house ~ Firoozeh Dumas
True Friend Is quotes by Firoozeh Dumas
A true friend is someone who never gets tired listening to your pointless drama over and over again. ~ Lauren Conrad
True Friend Is quotes by Lauren Conrad
When I was a child, an angel came to say,
A true friend is coming my warrior to sweep you away,
It won't be easy the path because it leads through hell,
But if you're faithful, it will be the greatest story to tell,
You will move God's daughters to a place of hope,
Your story will teach everyone there is nothing they can't cope,
You will suffer a lot, but not one tear will you waste,
Because for all that you do for me, you will be graced,
For I am bringing you someone that wants to travel your trail,
Someone you already met when you passed through heaven's veil,
A warrior, a friend that whispers your heart's song,
Someone that will run with you and pull your spirit along,
Don't you see the timing was love's fated throw,
Because I put you both there to help one another grow,
I am the writer of all great stories your chapters were written by me,
You suffered, you cried because I needed you to see,
That your faith in my ending goes far beyond two,
It was going to change more hearts than both of you knew,
So hush my child and wait for my loving hand,
The last chapter is not written and still in the sand,
It is up to you to finish, before the tide washes it away,
All that is in your heart, I've put there for you to say,
This is not about winning, loss or pain,
I made you the way you are because true love stories are insane,
I wrote you in heaven as I sat on its s ~ Shannon L. Alder
True Friend Is quotes by Shannon L. Alder
A true friend is one who can feel your heart beating and dance with it when it is joyful, cry with it when it is torn, and inspire you when you are in need. ~ Debasish Mridha
True Friend Is quotes by Debasish Mridha
A true friend is so great an advantage, even for the greatest lords, in order that he may speak well of them, and back them in their absence, that they should do all to have one. ~ Blaise Pascal
True Friend Is quotes by Blaise Pascal
A true friend is someone you can count on no matter what. ~ Bohdi Sanders
True Friend Is quotes by Bohdi Sanders
A true friend is someone who says nice things behind your back. ~ Anthony Michael Hall
True Friend Is quotes by Anthony Michael Hall
A true friend is tested in adversity. ~ Quintus Ennius
True Friend Is quotes by Quintus Ennius
Being a true friend is giving of the one thing you can NOT get back; Time ~ Angel Dust
True Friend Is quotes by Angel Dust
What sweetness is left in life, if you take away friendship? Robbing life of friendship is like robbing the world of the sun. A true friend is more to be esteemed than kinsfolk. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero
True Friend Is quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
A true friend is someone who sees the pain in your eyes while everyone else believes the smile on your face. ~ Anonymous
True Friend Is quotes by Anonymous
A true friend is someone who is always there for you, with no agenda other than the friendship itself. We rely on our friends to lift us up in bad times, to keep us grounded in good times, but most importantly, to be there for us when we need nothing at all. ~ Tonya Hurley
True Friend Is quotes by Tonya Hurley
A true friendship isn't based on what you think you can get out of it. It's based on respecting someone enough to let him be who he really is. A true friend is someone who says "I'm here for you" and proves it. ~ J.T. Geissinger
True Friend Is quotes by J.T. Geissinger
A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success! ~ Doug Larson
True Friend Is quotes by Doug Larson
We are participatory beings who inhabit a participatory reality, seeking relationships that enhance our sense of what it means to be alive. In terms of dharma practice, a true friend is more than just someone with whom we share common values and who accepts us for what we are. Such a friend is someone with whom we share common values and who accepts us for what we are. Such a friend is someone whom we can trust to refine our understanding of what it means to live, who can guide us when we're lost and help us find the way along a path, who can assuage our anguish through the reassurance of his or her presence. ~ Stephen Batchelor
True Friend Is quotes by Stephen Batchelor
The history that one can create with a friend, a lifetime of history and shared experience, is a wonderful thing and shabbily sacrificed. And yet a true friend is a rare thing; sometimes those whom we perceive as friends are simply people with whom we spend a lot of time. ~ John Boyne
True Friend Is quotes by John Boyne
I look back now and realize that the gift of a true friend is that she sees you not the way you see yourself or the way others see you. A true friend sees you for who you are and who you can become. ~ Robin Jones Gunn
True Friend Is quotes by Robin Jones Gunn
A true friend is a light in the dark. Viven ~ Kate Morton
True Friend Is quotes by Kate Morton
A true friend is a reflection of yourself. ~ Debasish Mridha
True Friend Is quotes by Debasish Mridha
A true friend is forever a friend. ~ George MacDonald
True Friend Is quotes by George MacDonald
A true friend is someone with whom protocol is no longer necessary. ~ Simon Sinek
True Friend Is quotes by Simon Sinek
A true friend is the most precious of all possessions and the one we take the least thought about acquiring. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
True Friend Is quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
A true friend is like a soldier that never abandons his partner alone in the battle field". ~ Abdulazeez Henry Musa
True Friend Is quotes by Abdulazeez Henry Musa
Friendship is not enjoyable unless we take up its expressive challenges. If a person surrounds himself with "friends" who simply reaffirm his public persona, who never question his dreams and desires, who never force him to try out new ways of being, he misses out on the opportunities friendship presents. A true friend is someone we can occasionally be crazy with, someone who does not expect us to be always true to form. It is someone who shares our goal of self-realization, and therefore is willing to share the risks that any increase in complexity entails. ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
True Friend Is quotes by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
A true friend is one with whom you can be playful and serious at the same time. The Bible teaches that God has appointed "a time to weep, and a time to laugh ~ Joel R. Beeke
True Friend Is quotes by Joel R. Beeke
A true friend is like a good book, the inside is better than the cover. ~ Anonymous
True Friend Is quotes by Anonymous
Every true friend is a glimpse of God. ~ Lucy Larcom
True Friend Is quotes by Lucy Larcom
A true friend is someone who understand your past, believes in your future, and accept you just the way you are. ~ Faith Comes By Hearing
True Friend Is quotes by Faith Comes By Hearing
A true friend is not the one you share laughter with. But the one you share laughter and sorrow with. ~ Unarine Ramaru
True Friend Is quotes by Unarine Ramaru
Silence is the true friend that never betrays. ~ Confucius
True Friend Is quotes by Confucius
A true friend is one who will help you get to your destiny. ~ Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha
True Friend Is quotes by Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha
It is my perception that a true friend never relies on another's dream. A person with the potential to be my true friend must be able to find his reason for life without my help. And, he would have to put his heart and soul into protecting his dream. He would never hesitate to fight for his dream, even against me. For me, a true friend is one who stands equal in those terms. ~ Kentaro Miura
True Friend Is quotes by Kentaro Miura
A true friend is the one who knows
everything about you and still loves you. Eventually, people will forget the things you said or did, but the feelings
you woke up in them they will never forget! ~ Danka V.
True Friend Is quotes by Danka V.
To be happily married, as I've been fortunate enough to be, is to be a partner in a conversation that can last a full adult life. To have a true friend is to be able to test your hypotheses against someone who's receptive, but who won't give ground forever, and then let your friend try his wares out on you. At its best, friendly conversation is about giving up all claims to property and priority and engaging in collaboration--so that, at least for the two of you, something like an improvised musical composition in two parts is taking place. You do some rhythm to his lead; he lays down a bass line when you want to run the thing out into space. You both wind up saying things and thinking things that, alone, you never could have. This kind of hybrid mixing, this collaborative creation, is greatly to be treasured: it's one of the best parts of life. ~ Mark Edmundson
True Friend Is quotes by Mark Edmundson
Friendship is as great as a True Friend
And A True Friend is as great as True Friendship.
Quote by Sharvani Akula ~ Sharvani Akula
True Friend Is quotes by Sharvani Akula
A true friend is an umbrella on the storm. ~ Jennifer Aquillo
True Friend Is quotes by Jennifer Aquillo
A true friend is a person that will shout at you when you're wrong, hold your hand when you fall down, dance with you during the good times, and stay with you during your ups and downs. ~ Debasish Mridha
True Friend Is quotes by Debasish Mridha
Your true friend is the one who will never walk away in your time of need.
Regardless of the situation, time or location, your true friend will stand by you ~ Ellen J. Barrier
True Friend Is quotes by Ellen J. Barrier
A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire. ~ Francois De La Rochefoucauld
True Friend Is quotes by Francois De La Rochefoucauld
A true friend is the greatest possesion. ~ Benjamin Franklin
True Friend Is quotes by Benjamin Franklin
Any gift from a true friend is valuable, even if it's a hollow walnut shell. ~ Firoozeh Dumas
True Friend Is quotes by Firoozeh Dumas
Instead of looking for a true friend become a true friend. ~ Deepak Chopra
True Friend Is quotes by Deepak Chopra
The definition of a true friend is not someone who swoops in when you're going through a rough patch. True friendship is when someone can appreciate your happiness - celebrate your happiness, even when she's not necessarily happy herself. ~ Sarah Jio
True Friend Is quotes by Sarah Jio
Our most difficult task as a friend is to offer understanding when we don't understand. ~ Robert Breault
True Friend Is quotes by Robert Breault
A true friend is a sort of second self. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero
True Friend Is quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
If you'd be beloved, make yourself amiable. A true friend is the best possession. ~ Benjamin Franklin
True Friend Is quotes by Benjamin Franklin
I'm deeply in love with my wife, and she's my best friend, and yet we share different viewpoints of life, which I think is one of the things that holds our marriage together. She came from Texas, and she has an optimistic view of life. I came from Detroit and have a very pessimistic view. ~ David Small
True Friend Is quotes by David Small
We are all born with a rut radar. Mine is finely wired, a little oversensitive maybe. Perhaps just a bit hyperactive. Twenty steady boyfriends before turning 16, a new best friend 12 times a year, switched college majors every time I met someone who seemed exactly like the sort of person I really, really wanted to be. I'm not fickle. I'm just never there yet. ~ Fran Lebowitz
True Friend Is quotes by Fran Lebowitz
Bestseller is not the one who sells a million.
Best Seller is the one who has no customers, only friends. ~ Vineet Raj Kapoor
True Friend Is quotes by Vineet Raj Kapoor
Friend, that was not well spoken; you seem like one who is reckless. So it is that the gods do not bestow graces in all ways on men, neither in stature nor yet in brains or eloquence; for there is a certain kind of man, less noted for beauty, but the god puts comeliness on his words, and they who look toward him are filled with joy at the sight, and he speaks to them without faltering in winning modesty, and shines among those who are gathered, and people look on him as on a god when he walks in the city. Another again in his appearance is like the immortals, but upon his words there is no grace distilled, as in your case the appearance is conspicuous, and not a god even would make it otherwise, and yet the mind there is worthless. ~ Homer
True Friend Is quotes by Homer
What is mine, even to my life, is hers I love; but the secret of my friend is not mine! ~ Philip Sidney
True Friend Is quotes by Philip Sidney
It's like asking, what's an impostor look like?" Arctor said. "I talked one time to a big hash dealer who'd been busted with ten pounds of hash in his possession. I asked him what the nark who busted him looked like. You know, the
what do they call them?
buying agent that came out and posed as a friend of a friend and got him to sell him some hash."
"Looked," Barris said, winding string, "just like us."
"More so," Arctor said. "The hash-dealer dude
he'd already been sentenced and was going in the following day
he told me, 'They have longer hair than we do.' So I guess the moral of that is, Stay away from guys looking the same as us. ~ Philip K. Dick
True Friend Is quotes by Philip K. Dick
Now. Bram, you are a good friend and an uptanding young man, but I'm afraid that tradition dictates I now attempt to scare you within an inch of your unlife."
"Understood," Bram said, taking his arm back as I got myself under control.
My father is a gentle-looking man. Thus, why I started laughing again as he attempted to look stern. "What are your intentions concerning my daughter?"
Bram cast a look my way, laughing himself, before clearing his throat and doing his best to look scared. "Why, to care for and protect her until I rot away, sir. ~ Lia Habel
True Friend Is quotes by Lia Habel
Friend is the one who showes the way and walks a piece of road with us ~ William Wordsworth
True Friend Is quotes by William Wordsworth
and you will realize
that fear is a welcome
friend at this table
it has been waiting
to tell its story
for such a long time
and for those who choose
to listen, I promise
that it will be
the most wonderful of tales
you will have ever heard ~ M.M. Van Der Reijden
True Friend Is quotes by M.M. Van Der Reijden
President Bush is a friend of mine. He's not a moron at all. ~ Jean Chretien
True Friend Is quotes by Jean Chretien
This is how you keep a best friend: you talk out of guilt, you live in separate states. Again and again, you vow fidelity to her in fits of absurd hopefulness. It is the same as being in love. ~ Emily Fridlund
True Friend Is quotes by Emily Fridlund
You call the police when a robbery takes place. You call the fire department when there is a fire. but, you call a friend when you're down. ~ Sydney Wilhelmy
True Friend Is quotes by Sydney Wilhelmy
The third big idea is that we confess our sins to someone close to us
a friend or our spouse. I don't mean a public declaration of our shortcomings; I mean confession in the security of a trusted and living friend. ~ Ted Haggard
True Friend Is quotes by Ted Haggard
FRIEND
Friendship is received only by offering it first. ~ Sirshree
True Friend Is quotes by Sirshree
My good friends, we are all waiting. We are waiting, if not for the Messiah, as such, we are waiting for the messianic moment. And the messianic moment is what each and every one of us tries to build, meaning a certain area of humanity that links us to all those who are human and, therefore, desperately trying to fight despair as humanly as possible and-I hope-with some measure of success. ~ Elie Wiesel
True Friend Is quotes by Elie Wiesel
Your friend will pay deeply for what he's done here tonight," Chance snarled once he wiped off most of the blood. "You can tell him to run as far and as fast as he can, I'll get him. Just let him know that once this is all over, it's just gonna be you and me and a world full of corpses. ~ Kayla Krantz
True Friend Is quotes by Kayla Krantz
You know, my young friend, I will be ninety years old next year, and life is still a constant surprise to me. We never know what will happen next, what we will see, and what important person will come into our life, or what important person we will lose. Life is change, constant change, and unless we are lucky enough to find comedy in it, change is nearly always a drama, if not a tragedy. But after everything, and even when the skies turn scarlet and threatening, I still believe that if we are lucky enough to be alive, we must give thanks for the miracle of every moment of every day, no matter how flawed. ~ Mark T. Sullivan
True Friend Is quotes by Mark T. Sullivan
Those who Know Best decide that I belong in a military school. And so follows a miserable succession of bugle-blowing prisons, grim reveille-ridden summer camps. I have a new home too. But it doesn't count. Home is where my friend is, and there I never go. ~ Truman Capote
True Friend Is quotes by Truman Capote
In this world it is not possible that everyone will follow your steps. You can't change some one and some one will not change their lifestyle because of you. ~ Nutan Bajracharya
True Friend Is quotes by Nutan Bajracharya
We over-estimate the conscience of our friend. His goodness seems better than our goodness, his nature finer, his temptations less. Everything that is his,
his name, his form, his dress, books, and instruments,
fancy enhances. Our own thought sounds new and larger from his mouth. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
True Friend Is quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
There's things that you don't want to do and they keep haunting you and following you. Bennett Miller directed this project [Capote], who is a friend of mine since I was 16, and Danny Futterman wrote it, and he's also been a friend of mine since I was 16. ~ Philip Seymour Hoffman
True Friend Is quotes by Philip Seymour Hoffman
It's hard dealing with day to day disappointments and feeling like you can't find success. Especially when your best friend is Pixar. ~ Dane Cook
True Friend Is quotes by Dane Cook
When you know a friend is there you do not go to see him. Then he's gone and you blast your conscience to shreds that you did not see him. ~ John Steinbeck
True Friend Is quotes by John Steinbeck
Imagine spending an entire workday with your best friend at your side. You would no doubt acknowledge his presence throughout the day by introducing him to your friends or business associates and talking to him about the various activities of the day. But how would your friend feel if you never talked to him or acknowledged his presence? Yet that's how we treat the Lord when we fail to pray. If we communicated with our friends as infrequently as some of us communicate with the Lord, those friends might soon disappear. Our fellowship with God is not meant to wait until we are in heaven. ~ John F. MacArthur Jr.
True Friend Is quotes by John F. MacArthur Jr.
When she looks at my photo she thinks she is looking at me but she knows that I am also looking at her. When she dreams of me she knows that I am dreaming of her too. People who can see things from other points of view can understand this better than most. We always go where we think your attention goes. We know you are looking into our eyes because that is where the power is, even in a photo. The eyes are where the eternal fire of the soul resides. So the next time you look at a photo of your best friend, put yourself in their shoes and see how beautiful you are! ~ Kate McGahan
True Friend Is quotes by Kate McGahan
Dear Josh,
Thank you for giving me the most amazing memories. My life growing up was so full because you were in it. Having your love and loving you was always
just right. It made sense. You were my home. When I was with you I knew everything would be okay.
You dried my tears for me when I was sad. You held my hand when we buried my mother. You made me laugh when the world seemed like it was
falling apart. You were every special memory a girl could have. That first kiss will forever be embedded in my brain. It was as funny as it was sweet.
Our life together molded me into the woman I've become. I understand what it feels like to be loved and cherished because I had that with you. I
never doubted my worth because you taught me I was worthy.
When you said that one day I would heal I didn't believe that was possible. Life couldn't go one without my best friend. There was no room for
another guy in my heart. It turns out you were right. You always were. I found him. He is incredible. He is nothing at all like I would have planned. He
doesn't fit into a perfect package. He managed to wiggle into my heart and take over before I knew what was happening. I found that happiness you told me
would come along. I'm going to go live that life. I'm sure it will be a wilder ride than I ever imagined and I can't wait to live it. He's my home now. I'll
always love you. I'll never forget you. But this is my goodbye. I wasn't ready before to ~ Abbi Glines
True Friend Is quotes by Abbi Glines
The chemistry and the comfort and trust between two people playing a love story l is key, and to have a friend that I could trust, and whose sensibilities I already understood, made it so much easier, and is a big part of why it all looks natural on screen. ~ Joseph Gordon-Levitt
True Friend Is quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
A ship with two of every animal in the world, my friend? That would have to be a very large ship indeed. Is that how you would save a world? A bull and a cow, a sheep and a ram, and so on? The people who wrote your Torah, my friend, must have had poor livestock if they raised their herds from only one dam and one sire, breeding sisters with their brothers, any herdsman knows that this does not produce a healthy flock.
No, my friend to save the world you save the knowledge of that world, the knowledge that there were bulls and cows in it, that there were sheep and rams in it, that there were men and women who lived and died. If your world is to be destroyed, all you can save my friend, is the knowledge of it, to restore what you once had, to mourn what can never be restored. ~ Hal Duncan
True Friend Is quotes by Hal Duncan
Jesus, the son of Mary, peace be upon them, was accustomed to say, "O my God, surely I have entered into the morning unable to neither forestall what I fear nor hasten what I hope for. The whole affair is in another's hand. I have arisen bound to my deeds. There is no one poorer than me. Do not make me the cause of my enemies being cursed, nor make me the reason any harm should come to a friend. Do not place tribulation in my spiritual path, nor empower anyone over me who shows me no mercy."

"Walk on Water: The Wisdom of Jesus"
From Traditional Arabic sources, translated by Shaykh Hamza Yusuf. ~ Ibn Abī Al-Dunyā
True Friend Is quotes by Ibn Abī Al-Dunyā
For me, the battle is finding the balance between wanting to spend time with my boys and then having enough perspective to still be the disciplinarian and, like, not be in the best friend business. ~ Rob Lowe
True Friend Is quotes by Rob Lowe
How can life be worth living, to use the words of Ennius, which lacks that repose which is to be found in the mutual good-will of a friend? What can be more delightful than to have some one to whom you can say everything with the same absolute confidence as to yourself? Is not prosperity robbed of half its value if you have no one to share your joy? On the other hand, misfortunes would be hard to bear if there were not some one to feel them even more acutely than yourself. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero
True Friend Is quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
The verb 'to love' in Persian is 'to have a friend.' 'I love you' translated literally is 'I have you as a friend,' and 'I don't like you' simply means 'I don't have you as a friend. ~ Shusha Guppy
True Friend Is quotes by Shusha Guppy
At times we will be asked to let go of things that we have always wanted to keep for ourselves, or things that we would never have thought that we would to have to let go of, such as the loss of a loved one or the betrayal of a dear friend. A tree never hesitates to shake off her leaves during fall, and so we must take another lesson given to us by the nature: let go when it is time. Although such losses can be difficult and painful, rise above this suffering. Focus within your mind, the image of the Lotus prospering above mud. We are the lotus; rise above. ~ Forrest Curran
True Friend Is quotes by Forrest Curran
I am very sensitive to all form of music, painting, sculpting, dancing, and I love cinema also. For example if I look at the work of the dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov, who happens to be a friend of mine, everything he does is inspiring to me. ~ Philippe Petit
True Friend Is quotes by Philippe Petit
Like the turtle's shell, the sense of self serves as a shield against stimulation and as a burden which limits mobility into possibly dangerous areas. The turtle rarely has to think about what's on the other side of his shell; whatever it is, it can't hurt him, can't even touch him. So, too, adults insist on the shell of a consistent self for themselves and their children and appreciate turtles for friends; they wish to be protected from being hurt or touched or confused or having to think. If a man can rely on consistency, he can afford not to notice people after the first few times. But I imagined a world in which each individual might be about to play the lover, the benefactor, the sponger, the attacker, the friend: and once known as one of the next day he might yet be anything. Would we pay attention to this person? Would life be boring? Would life be livable? I saw then clearly for the first time that the fear of failure keeps us huddled in the cave of self - a group of behavior patterns we have mastered and have no intention of risking failure by abandoning. ~ Luke Rhinehart
True Friend Is quotes by Luke Rhinehart
The one you love, your anam cara, your soul friend, is the truest mirror to reflect your soul. ~ John O'Donohue
True Friend Is quotes by John O'Donohue
People think my friend George is weird because he wears sideburns ... behind his ears. I think he's weird because he wears false teeth ... with braces on them. ~ Steven Wright
True Friend Is quotes by Steven Wright
Nice? It's the ONLY thing, said the Water Rat solemnly, as he leant forward for his stroke. Believe me, my young friend, there is NOTHING - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats. Simply messing ... he went on dreamily: messing about ... in ... boats; messing.. ~ Kenneth Grahame
True Friend Is quotes by Kenneth Grahame
A friend, Scott Egleston, who is a professional in the mental health field, told me a therapy fable. He heard it from someone, who heard it from someone else. It goes:
Once upon a time, a woman moved to a cave in the mountains to study with a guru. She wanted, she said, to learn everything there was to know. The guru supplied her with stacks of books and left her alone so she could study. Every morning, the guru returned to the cave to monitor the woman's progress. In his hand, he carried a heavy wooden cane. Each morning, he asked her the same question: " Have you learned everything there is to know yet?" Each morning, her answer was the same. "No." she said, " I haven't." The guru would then strike her over the head with its cane.
This scenario repeated itself for months. One day the guru entered the cave, asked the same question, heard the same answer, and raised his cane to hit her in the same way, but the woman grabbed the cane from the guru, stopping his assault in midair.
Relieved to end the daily batterings but fearing reprisal, the woman looked up at the guru. To her surprise, the guru smiled. " Congragulations." he said, " you have graduated ". You know now everything you need to know."
" How's that"? the woman asked.
" You have learned that you will never learn everything there is to know," he replied. " And you have learned how to stop the pain". ~ Melody Beattie
True Friend Is quotes by Melody Beattie
Our supreme purpose here is to discard our false identity and realize the Atman within. ~ Bert McCoy
True Friend Is quotes by Bert McCoy
It is easy to love your friend, but sometimes the hardest lesson to learn is to love your enemy. ~ Sun Tzu
True Friend Is quotes by Sun Tzu
Look not to our unknown benefactor for salvation. This is humanity's war upon itself and the only salvation possible must be found in the eyes of our brother, our sister, our neighbor. Do find the courage, my beloved friend, to meet that gaze. ~ Steven Erikson
True Friend Is quotes by Steven Erikson
I haven't a single friend; I must live alone. But well I know that God is nearer to me than to the others of my art; I associate with Him without fear, I have always recognized and understood Him, and I have no fear for my music,-it can meet no evil fate. Those who understand it must become free from all the miseries that the others drag with them. ~ Ludwig Van Beethoven
True Friend Is quotes by Ludwig Van Beethoven
