not everybody likes quotes,
but I kinda need the inspiration
I.
'A real friend is one who walks in
when the rest of the world walks out.'
- Walter Winchell (1897-1972), US journalist and author
II.
'In prosperity our friends know us;
in adversity we know our friends.'
- John Churton Collins (1848-1908), English literary critic
III.
'A friend is one who sees through you
and still enjoys the view.'
- Wilma Askinas (1926- ), US author and columnist
IV.
'You are a true friend
We cry through the bad times,
We laugh through the good ...
with happiness and smiles,
with pain and tears,
I know you will be with me
throughout the years.'
- Anon
V.
'Thank you for being a genuine friend ... one who is not afraid to say things, out of love, things that are hard to say and hard to hear but cares enough to speak up.'
- Anon
thank you for all the wise advice you have given me
I wouldn't be where I am today if not for your guidance*

none of the above quotes is from my pen (disclaimer)
How I do loveeeeeee Voltaire!
:)
Some of my ultra-faves:
1. I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. --Voltaire
2. God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh. --Voltaire
3. The best way to become boring is to say everything. --Voltaire
4. Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers. --Voltaire
5. I should like to lie at your feet and die in your arms. --Voltaire
for more of the humorous and witty Voltaire, see:

sub-entry: 'tolerance'
1.
and so, step outside
a little
just to breathe
to find which way visible
to see which direction next
twirling destiny
on the end
of
fingertips
2.
speak clear
own your opinions
take stock
yet
show tolerance
extend kindness
to one
who may just
feed you
on your sick bed
3.
yes, the desert camel
may support itself well
until a really dry spell
thus, please shut not that door so
cos, unbeknown
I see you still
my sweet friend
through the window
of your care
