    Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another What! You
    “Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”

    Rick Riordan
    “Don't die on me," she ordered. "You are not dying on me."
    "Yes, ma'am." He felt light-headed, but she was about the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. Her hair was smoldering. Her face was smudged with soot. She had a cut on her arm, her dress was torn, and she was missing a boot. Beautiful.”

    Mother Teresa
    “At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done.

    C.S. Lewis
    “God, who needs nothing, loves into existence wholly superfluous creatures in order that He may love and perfect them. He creates the universe, already foreseeing - or should we say "seeing"? there are no tenses in God - the buzzing cloud of flies about the cross, the flayed back pressed against the uneven stake, the nails driven through the mesial nerves, the repeated incipient suffocation as the body droops, the repeated torture of back and arms as it is time after time, for breath's sake, hitched up. If I may dare the biological image, God is a "host" who deliberately creates His own parasites; causes us to be that we may exploit and "take advantage of" Him. Herein is love. This is the diagram of Love Himself, the inventor of all loves.”
    C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

    Mother Teresa
    “The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.”
    Mother Teresa, A Simple Path: Mother Teresa

    To avoid curiosity.

    To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.

    To pass over the mistakes of others.

    To accept insults and injuries.

    To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.

    To be kind and gentle even under provocation.

    Never to stand on one's dignity.

    To choose always the hardest.”
