Ella Wheeler Wilcox

He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.
Friendship is something that creates equality and mutuality, not a reward for finding equality or a way of intensifying existing mutuality.

A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
Walter Winchell
