“Come, I’ll be friends with thee, Jack. Thou art going to the
wars, and whether I shall ever see thee again or no, there is
nobody cares.”

As much as for their good,
My friends were enemies on stilts
With their heads in a cunning cloud.”

“Children treat their friends differently than they treat the other people in their lives. A friendship is a place for experimenting with new ways of handling anger and aggression. It is an arena for practicing reciprocity, testing assertiveness, and searching for compromise in ways children would not try with parents or siblings.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
