Close Friend

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or friend:

    “I remember, I remember
    The fir trees dark and high;
    I used to think their slender tops
    Were close against the sky;
    It was a childish ignorance,
    But now ‘tis little joy
    To know I’m further off from Heaven
    Than when I was a boy.”
    —Thomas Hood (1799–1845)

    “A Friend is one who incessantly pays us the compliment of expecting from us all the virtues, and who can appreciate them in us.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
