“We cherish our friends not for their ability to amuse us, but for ours to amuse them.”

“Friendship is everything. Friendship is more than talent. It is more than government. It is almost the equal of family.”

“A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside.”

“One forgets words as one forgets names. One's vocabulary needs constant fertilisation or it will die.”

“You never find yourself until you face the truth.”
