FRIENDSHIP/KINDNESS
Don't
walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't
walk behind me, I may not lead.
Walk
beside me and be my friend."
- Albert Camus (thanks to The
Friendship Page)
"What
is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies"
-Aristotle.
"The
human heart, at whatever age, opens only to the heart that opens in return"
-Marie Edgeworth
"...but
it was one of the little things which are always waiting to be done in
this world of ours, where rainy days come so often, where spirits get out
of tune, and duty won't go hand in hand with pleasure. Little things
of this sort are especially good work for little people: a kind little
thought, an unselfish little act, a cheery little word, are so sweet and
comfortable, that no one can fail to feel the beauty and love of the giver,
no matter how small they are. Mothers do a deal of this sort of thing,
unseen, unthanked, but felt and remembered long afterward, and never lost,
for this is the simple magic that binds hearts together, and keeps home
happy.
~An Old-Fashioned Girl by Louisa May Alcott
To have grown wise
and kind is real success.

"Be nice to people on your way up because you'll meet them on your way down."
"Never injure a friend,
even in jest."
- Cicero (from The Friendship
Page)
"There are all kinds
of courage. . .It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies,
but just as much to stand up to our friends."
~Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling
