Marilyn MonroeTo me a good book is like a quiet friendโa friend whoโs happy to share thoughts and feelings with you, whoโs always there when you need them. Best of all, this friend doesnโt have any secrets. They trust you to understand them. They take you to their innermost places. They share their sensations and emotionsโand they let you experience them. Wherever you go and however you feel, they are always by your side. For an hour, a day, a week, or forever, their life becomes yours. Their story is your story. Thatโs the kind of book Iโm trying to write.

You're just here... for the ride. For the incredible, indescribable Maximum Ride.
James PattersonFor I do not want any one to read my book carelessly. I have suffered too much grief in setting down these memories.

Not every one has had a friend. And if I forget him, I may become like the grown-ups who are no longer interested in anything but figures.

Louis FarrakhanNo matter how low down you are; no matter what your disposition has been; you may be low in your thoughts, words, and actions; you may be selfish; your heart may be overflowing with corruption and wickedness; yet Jesus will have compassion upon you.

Just come at once. He is a faithful friend - a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

I said 'David Tennant'. He wrote, 'To David Tennant, seventeen pounds forty five', signed it and I asked him what it meant. He said, 'He'll know'
Arabella WeirEveryone needs a spiritual guide: a minister, rabbi, counselor, wise friend, or therapist. My own wise friend is my dog. He has deep knowledge to impart. He makes friends easily and doesn't hold a grudge. He enjoys simple pleasures and takes each day as it comes. Like a true Zen master he eats when he is hungry and sleeps when he is tired. He's not hung up about sex. Best of all, he befriends me with an unconditional love that human beings would do well to imitate.

He is a passionate advocate for what he believes, and I welcome him to the race.

It seems like a perfect place for them.
