Friends are as companions on a journey who ought to aid each other to persevere in the road to a happier life.
Above our life we love a steadfast friend.
In poverty and other misfortunes of life true friends are a sure refuge. The young they keep out of mischief to the old they are a comfort and aid in their weakness and those in the prime of life they incite to noble deeds.
At the end of your life you will never regret not having passed one more test not winning one more verdict or not closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband a friend a child or a parent.
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think all the walks I want to take all the books I want to read and all the friends I want to see.
I'd go down to the end of my street to a garage that had a certain feeling about it or a particular light I'd take a picture of a friend who needed a head shot. That's how I learned instead of having school assignments and learning camera techniques.
If I don't need the money I don't work. I'm going to spend time with my family and friends and I'm going to travel and read and listen to music and try to learn a little bit more about how to be a human being as opposed to learning how to be somebody else.
I think my family and closest friends are learning about my need to withdraw and I am learning how to restore and store my energy to both serve the community to the best of my ability and to serve my writer's heart.
I've bought pretty much every book ever written about the Alamo and I talk to my friends that I've made over the past 15 20 years. It's just a constant learning and fascinating thing for me.
I supported my friend Congressman Shuler over former Speaker Nancy Pelosi during our party's leadership elections in November citing a need for new leadership.
I forgot to shake hands and be friendly. It was an important lesson about leadership.
Be careful the environment you choose for it will shape you be careful the friends you choose for you will become like them.
There is so I believe in the essence of everything something that we cannot call learning. There is my friend only a knowledge - that is everywhere.
The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.
Lovers may be and indeed generally are enemies but they never can be friends because there must always be a spice of jealousy and a something of Self in all their speculations.

I need to add that my work on multiple intelligences received a huge boost in 1995 when Daniel Goleman published his book on emotional intelligence. I am often confused with Dan. Initially though Dan and I are longtime friends this confusion irritated me.
I try not to put anything political on the forefront of what I'm trying to do creatively. At the same time I do think it's wonderful when I hear people say that it's inspirational that I'm an Indian woman on camera. My life is very diverse and my friends are a diverse group of people.
I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention. To not be like your parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.
The Grateful Dead they're my best friends. Their message of hope peace love teamwork creativity imagination celebration the dance the vision the purpose the passion all of the things I believe in makes me the luckiest Deadhead in the world.
The peculiar fascination which the South held over my imagination and my limited capital decided me in favor of Atlanta University so about the last of September I bade farewell to the friends and scenes of my boyhood and boarded a train for the South.
I met Elton John at an Interview dinner and we just sort of became friends. He's got such a wicked sense of humor.
Roosevelt's humor was broad his manner friendly. Of wit there was little of philosophy none. What did he possess? Intuition inspiration love of adventure.
I think that different pleasures work for different readers - a friend of mine won't read anything that's not a cardiovascular sort of page-turner. I tend to care less about plot but I'm a sucker for humor and strangeness.
