Childhood Friend

Famous quotes containing the words childhood and/or friend:

    I long for scenes where man has never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator God And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass below, above, the vaulted sky.
    John Clare (1793–1864)

    For not many men, the proverb saith,
    Can love a friend whom fortune prospereth
    Unenvying; and about the envious brain
    Cold poison clings, and doubles all the pain
    Life brings him.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
