Yes, a deep lesson from the postage stamp. It attaches itself to a moveable material, the envelope and gets going. A good relationship keeps you going forward; a bad one keeps you static. Attach yourself to someone who is also going forward and you will also get there.
~ Israelmore Ayivor
Fire False Friends as early as possible. Do it before they dig out the dream seeds you've planted! The earlier, the better; the quicker, the safer!
Always make an effort to be around people who will help you grow.
~ Joyce Rachelle
These are the attributes of Bullshit people; they will...blur your imagination, take your endowments for a piece of debris, make you ridiculous, and most importantly, you got to send them to the recycle bin.
~ Michael Bassey Johnson
Twenty good friends cannot live together in twenty good years”. We were more than twenty who left the school and the simple statement was beginning to echo hard in my ear, as if grandma actually had that particular day in mind. Pg.100

Sticking to one person for a lifetime is not a waste of time or lack of better ones, it means you've found your place of eternity.
Spread your courtesy across the door posts of everyone you know, but reserve your intimacy with the little trustworthy friends who are going where you are going. Get it simply: wide courtesy, narrow intimacy!
Talk to strangers politely... Every friend you have now was once a stranger, although not every stranger becomes a friend.
It is unpredictable for you to know which of the strangers you are about to meet that becomes your friend. Be polite to every stranger!
The attitude you pose is greatly influenced by the links of friendships you bookmark. Good friends, good attitudes; best friends, best attitudes. Guess what for toxic friends...!
Friendship is like an investment, the best type yields the best profit for you! It's not just about making friends, it's about making right friends for the right reasons!
Friends will always be there for the party. REAL friends will be there after the party...
~ Bray Love
Be careful of who becomes your friend and why. The person who will bite off your lips one day will have to first promise you a kiss today. Be careful of hypocrites.
You turn friends away before you discover they were good after all, you give up on your dreams before you realize you were very close to your success all that while. Be patient, don’t rush things!
Remember as there are people that can help you to roll the boat of your dreams, there are also people who can drill holes under that boat to make it sink.
My dad once said... Some friends are like rubber wrappers; they bind with you safely but get weaker when you stretch them too much. Treat your friends with care, else the elasticity of their love for you may not go lasting!
Watch out! Someone taught me that I should watch the people in my boat; some may be rolling the boat while others may be drilling holes under it! So, am determined to watch my circle!
Plant a good seed in people who have fertile hearts. When you are away, they'll miss you. When you are coming again, they can't wait!
Don't act so callous to blank out good friends who failed on their way to success, just because something unusual hindered them, but you meandered out by a stroke of luck.
If books are your good friends, then a conscious life will be your best comrade all your life!
~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
