"White castle only tastes good between the hours of two and four in the morning"

That's something I heard a guy say on the subway today and while it shold probably go to http://www.overheardinnewyork.com/, I'll keep the readership to my blog. I thought it was a funny line and while true, sometimes it's nice to just have a sushi dinner with the girls - catch up on the new, reminisce about the old, share a few laughs and remember the tears.

A loyal friend laughs at your jokes when they're not so good, and sympathizes with your problems when they're not so bad. ~Arnold H. Glasgow

Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things. ~Author Unknown

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. ~Henri Nouwen

Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh!" he whispered. "Yes, Piglet?" "Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's paw. "I just wanted to be sure of you." ~A.A. Milne

Hold a true friend with both your hands. ~Nigerian Proverb

Only your real friends will tell you when your face is dirty. ~Sicilian Proverb

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job. ~Laurence J. Peter

A true friend is one who thinks you are a good egg even if you are half-cracked. ~Author Unknown

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. ~Dinah Craik

A good friend is a connection to life - a tie to the past, a road to the future, the key to sanity in a totally insane world. ~Lois Wyse
