Baker, Nicholson

The glory of friendship is not in the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is in the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

46.
For the friendship of two, the patience of one is required.
Proverb, Indian
