This year has definitely been one where friendship has been tested to its limits and beyond. Came across a couple of quotes which spoke volumes to me, reminding me each of a different situation, and the love of my friends.
"Never Explain--your Friends do not need it and your Enemies will not believe you anyway."
--Elbert Hubbard
The best advisers, helpers and friends, always are not those who tell us how to act in special cases, but who give us, out of themselves, the ardent spirit and desire to act right, and leave us then, even through many blunders, to find out what our our own form of right action is."
--Phillips Brooks
"True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo the shocks ofadversity before it is entitled to the appellation."
--George Washington
"Perhaps the most delightful friendships are those in which there is much agreement, much disputation, and yet more personal liking."
--George Eliot
"When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it."
--Edgar Watson Howe
The last one is for Nithya. Thanks alot ma!!!
