Throw away thy rod,
Throw away thy wrath;
Take the gentle path. - George Herbert Friendship is Love, without his wings. - Lord Bryon, L'Amitié est l'Amour Friendship consists in forgetting what one gives, and remembering what one receives. - Dumas the Younger Anybody can sympathize with the sufferings of a friend, but it requires a very fine nature to sympathize with a friend's success. - Oscar Wilde A smile is a curved line that sets things straight. Life is not so short but there is always time for courtesy. - Ralph Waldo Emerson Kindness is produced by kindness. - Cicero A friend is one who knows my song.... and sings it to me when I forget. The man who trusts men will make fewer mistakes than he who distrusts them. - Cammilo Di Cavour None goes his way alone. All that we send into the lives of others, Will come back into our own. - Edwin Markham Reprove thy friend privately; commend him publicly. Let us oft speak kind words to each other. - Joseph L.

For being a little too kind.

We're glad to have you as our guest, And hope you have a good night's rest. Tomorrow you again may roam, But while you're here just feel at home. There are moments when one special friend can make a difference that no one else can make. In a friend you find a second self. - Isabella Norton Friends and wine should be old. A loyal friend laughs at your jokes when they're not so good, and sympathizes with your problems when they're not so bad. - Arnold H. Glasgow Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end; and somewhere in the middle we became the best of friends.
