Famous quotes containing the words friends and/or meeting:
“Certain faults are necessary for the existence of the individual. We would resent it if old friends were to get rid of certain peculiarities.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“There is no ordinary Part of humane Life which expresseth so much a good Mind, and a right inward Man, as his Behaviour upon Meeting with Strangers, especially such as may seem the most unsuitable Companions to him: Such a Man when he falleth in the Way with Persons of Simplicity and Innocence, however knowing he may be in the Ways of Men, will not vaunt himself thereof; but will the rather hide his Superiority to them, that he may not be painful unto them.”
—Richard Steele (1672–1729)
