words of praise

You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments you have really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.

~ Henry Drummond


A friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out.


True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it be lost.

~ Charles Colton
