Take my hand my friend
I wish to help you along
Just knowing there are two of us
Can help to make you strong
No matter where we go or who we become,
never forget who helped us get there.
Sometimes we walk through life,
Not even knowing where to go,
Without a destination, or knowing why,
Or with what kind of purpose…
And a youth said, “Speak to us of Friendship.”
Your friend is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
And he is your board and your fireside.
For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.
“I’d like to be the sort of friend
that you have been to me;
I’d like to be the help that you’ve been
always glad to be;
I’d like to mean as much to you
each minute of the day
As you have meant, old friend of mine,
to me along the way.
“It is wise to apply the oil of refined politeness to the mechanism of friendship.” – Sidonie Gabrielle Colette
“We want all our friends to tell us our bad qualities; it is only the particular ass that does so whom we can’t tolerate.” – William James
“Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.” – Oscar Wilde
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it’s the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friend.”
“True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable.” – David Tyson Gentry
“Never Explain – your Friends do not need it and your Enemies will not believe you anyway.” – Elbert Hubbard

Sometimes it’s hard to write the words
That you, my dear, should see.
Or say the things that you need to hear,
Or be as I should be.
Have you ever found a friend
That makes your heart glow
Someone who is wonderful
You feel honored to know
