Friend

Famous quotes containing the word friend:

    In order to prove a friend to one’s guests, frugality must reign in one’s meals; and, according to an ancient saying, one must eat to live, not live to eat.
    Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

    A friend loves at all times, and kinsfolk are born to share adversity.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 17:17.

    ... a friend told me that she had read of a woman who had knitted a wash rag for President Wilson. She was eighty years old and her friends thought it remarkable that she could knit a wash rag! I thought that if a woman of eighty could knit a wash rage for a Democratic President it behooved one of ninety-six to make something more than a wash rag for a Republican President.
    Maria D. Brown (1827–1927)
