It took a tiny Helen Exley giftbook (L:5.8cm; W:4.0cm; T:2.8cm) to load me up on the ins and outs of friendship over 368 pages. No mean feat for Ms Exley who has spent 15 years collecting quotes on friendship.
What I like best from this un-tome is the segment on how we can be free to be ourselves among friends. Here then is a highlight of her selected quotes for you to mull over:-
"A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud." --Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Real friends are those who when you've made a fool of yourself, don't feel that you've done a permanent job." --H.M.E.
"Friend derives from a word meaning "free". A friend is someone who allows us space and freedom to be." --Debbie Alicen
"It is one of the blessing of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them." --Ralph Waldo Emerson
"A friend is someone who knows all about you and love you all the same." --Author Unknown
I believe that the aforesaid insights are crucial for us to become a good friend to another person with application.
