A true friend has your best interests at heart and the pluck to tell you what you need to hear.

Do not be like the cat who wanted a fish but was afraid to get his paws wet.

Destroy the family, you destroy the country.

There is magic in long-distance friendships. They let you relate to other human beings in a way that goes beyond being physically together and is often more profound.

A part of you has grown in me. And so you see, it's you and me together forever and never apart, maybe in distance, but never in heart

Courage, an independent spark from heaven's bright throne, by which the soul stands raised, triumphant, high, alone.

Friendship is blessed on trust, without it there is nothing.
