22.
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate now knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.
Nouwen, Henri

23.
Honesty is the rarest wealth anyone can possess, and yet all the honesty in the world ain't lawful tender for a loaf of bread.
Billings, Josh

24.
Nothing resembles an honest man more than a cheat.
Proverb, French

25.
If you follow only one rule, let it be this one: Be yourself. The really strong boy-girl relationships are based on what people really are, not on what they pretend to be.

26.
I grew up in New York, and I have that in me, that be-honest-at-all-costs, don't b.s. me attitude. I say, If you've got something to say about me, say it to my face. And then we'll either talk about it or fight about it.
Robbins, Tim

27.
Dare to be honest and fear no labor.
Burns, Robert

28.
The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income tax return. It's the zero adjust on his bathroom scale.
Arthur C. Clarke

29.
Every man who says frankly and fully what he thinks is doing a public service.
Stephen, Leslie

30.
Look a man in the eye and say what you really think, don't just smile at him and say what you're supposed to think.

Honest men are the soft easy cushions on which knaves repose and fatten.
Otway, Thomas
