Elizabeth Whittemore Quote/Poem

“My friends are little lamps to me, 
Their radiance warms and cheers my ways, 
And all the pathway dark and lone 
Is brightened by their rays. 
I try to keep them bright by faith, 
And never let them dim with doubt 
For every time I lose a friend 
A little lamp goes out.” Elizabeth Whittemore

Clifton Fadiman Quote

“One measure of friendship consists 
not in the number of things friends can discuss, 
but in the number of things they need no longer mention.”
