Adam M. Grant
“In the deepest sense of the word, a friend is someone who sees more potential in you than you see in yourself, someone who helps you become the best version of yourself.”
Adam M. Grant, Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World

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 . . .”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“Liberals just did not understand the real world, he claimed. They were “essentially humanitarian and altruistic in purpose,” but by making the working man dependent on the state for his well-being, they were advancing the country “one more step toward total socialism, just beyond which lies total dictatorship.” Such people think “the government owes us a living because we were born.” Dependence upon state handouts, he asserted, “must be repudiated everywhere.”
William I. Hitchcock, The Age of Eisenhower: America and the World in the 1950s

William T. Sherman
“Grant stood by me when I was crazy, and I stood by him when he was drunk, and now we stand by each other.”
William T. Sherman
