"To have a good friend is the purest of all God’s gifts, for it is a love that has no exchange of payment. It is not inherited, as with a family. It is not compelling, as with a child. And it has no means of physical pleasure, as with a mate. It is therefore, an indescribable bond that brings with it a far deeper devotion than all the others."

Charlie W. Shedd

"The best thing to hold onto in life is each other."

Audrey Hepburn

"We take care of our health, we lay up money, we make our roof tight and our clothing sufficient, but who provides wisely that he shall not be wanting the best property of all - friends?"

Ralph Waldo Emerson

"How many slams in an old screen door? Depends how loud you shut it. How many slices in a bread? Depends how thin you cut it. How much good inside a day? Depends how good you live 'em. How much love inside a friend? Depends how much you give 'em."

Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends
