And This Is How I have Been Feeling ...

The following quotes from the authors below say it perfectly.


And what is laughter anyway?
Changing the angle of vision.
That is what you love a friend for:
the ability to change your angle of vision,
bring back your best self when you feel worst,
remind you of your strengths when you feel weak.
-Erica Jong (b. 1942) American Poet and Writer



Friendship is
certainly the finest balm
for the pangs
of disappointed love.
-Jane Austen (1775-1817) English Writer



It seems to me that trying
to live without friends is
like milking a bear to get cream
for your morning coffee.
It is a whole lot of trouble,
and then not worth
much after you get it.
-Zora Neale Hurston (1903-1960) American Writer
