I remember, somewhat, the following quote about friendship. I may not have it exactly correct, but I believe it is close enough:

A friend is someone you pour out all that is in your heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands will hold and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.

Apologies if it is misquoted ... the intent is there, though.

Thankful for this thread
 
I am so glad I found this thread. I so believe and agree with every word!!
A prayer I say everyday is the prayer of St Francis of Assissi. ...make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred,let me sow love... There is alot more to the prayer and I carry it in my wallet.
I am so thankful that I can see. One of the best things about growing older is that I learn to appreciate the important things in life, sight, health, peace of mind, and helping others.

So to all-- I wish you everything that warms your heart and brings you lasting happiness.
Life is too short not to be nice to everybody.

I really look forward to you getting to know me better.
Love,
Marti

Tkret: Thanks for that quote, while searching to see if you correctly quoted that quote (which you did), I found this:

"A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg
even though he knows that you are slightly cracked."

Also found this link with a few good ones:

Thanks for providing that link to those nice quotes. And, you are right; I DO think that you're slightly cracked! Stay well.

Oh, you bet KathieI. :1rotfl: in the same way Clarice Starling thought that Hannibal Lecter was all those things, too. :1rotfl:

I LOVE YOU BABY! :jester:

~ I've been in this room for eight years now Clarice. I know they will never, ever let me out while I'm alive. What I want is a view. I want a window where I can see a tree, or even water. I want to be in a federal institution, far away from Dr. Chilton.~

Oh, Donna.... I can almost hear his eerie voice - that's spooky. It's even MORE spooky if you remembered that quote from memory. :coolsmiley:
