Ralph Waldo Emerson Quote

“The glory of friendship is noth the outstretched hand,
nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship;
it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when
you discover that someone else believes in you
and is willing to trust you with a friendship.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Leo Buscaglia Quote

“Too often we underestimate
the power of a touch, a smile,
a kind word, a listening ear,
an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring,
all of which have the potential
to turn a life around.”
Leo Buscaglia

Anonymous Friendship Quote

“Somewhere there is someone
who dreams of your smile,
and finds in your presence
that life is worth while,
so when you are lonely,
remember it is true: somebody,
somewhere is thinking of you.”

“The best friend you can have is
one you can sit on the porch with
and not say a word,
then get up and feel like that was
the best conversation you’ve ever had.”

George Eliot Quote

“Oh, the comfort,
the inexpressible comfort
of feeling safe with a person,
having neither to weigh thoughts
nor measure words,
but pouring them all out,
just as they are,
chaff and grain together,
certain that a faithful hand
will take and sift them,
keep what is worth keeping,
and with a breath of kindness
blow the rest away.” George Eliot
