James Boswell said this quote

We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over. So in a series of acts of kindness there is, at last, one which makes the heart run over.

~ James Boswell

It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of importance, it lasts so short a time.

~ James Boswell
