Foreword
FRIENDSHIP is one of the most important things in the world. As afactor in educating the mind, forming the character, guiding the will,and shaping the destiny, the influence of Friendship can scarcely beoverrated. Friendship has made a man a hero, a saint, a demon!
It is to be hoped, therefore, that these Golden Thoughts onFriendship—garnered from a wide field—will prove helpful and inspiring[Pg 6]and tend to create pure and noble ideals in the minds of readers.
The touching story of David and Jonathan continues to possess asurpassing charm for humanity; and the voyager over Life's ocean whodiscovers a true friend discovers an island offering a safe, quiet havenfrom every storm that blows, and which presents innumerable lusciousfruits and sweet-scented flowers for his refreshment and enjoyment.
A. E. S.
Birth of Friendship
Nature loves nothing solitary, and always reaches out to somethingas a support, which ever in the sweetest friend is most delightful.
