When we honestly
ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that
it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have
chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender
hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion,
who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not
knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our
powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.
- Henri Nouwen

Fake friends
believe in rumors. Real friends believe in you.

"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." -
Irish Blessing
"It is better
to be in chains with friends , than to be in a garden with strangers."

Who finds a
faithful friend, finds a treasure. -- Jewish Saying
You have been my
friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I
liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little
while, we die. A spider's life can't help being something of a mess, with all
this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up
my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that. Charlotte, "Charlotte 's Web"
