Famous quotes containing the word friends:
“Yet some natures are too good to be spoiled by praise, and wherever the vein of thought reaches down into the profound, there is no danger from vanity. Solemn friends will warn them of the danger of the head’s being turned by the flourish of trumpets, but they can afford to smile.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
