Famous quotes containing the words friendship and/or bridge:

    “Better to go down dignified
    With boughten friendship at your side
    Than none at all. Provide, provide!”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs, though, it’s intimate and psychological—resistant to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
