Heartwarming Quotes about Friendship

(source from www.dictionary.com )

The Chinese letter 人 means “human being”. The letter is from the hieroglyph of two humans leaning on each other. Figuratively and literally, humans can hardly live alone. Living in this incredibly connected world of instant messaging, emailing, and social networking, we might feel more lonesome than those in the old days when people were happy with snail mail and seeing one another only in the offline world. However, we can make the best use of today’s super fast-paced ways of contacting and greeting, can’t we? Even though it might not seem to have the old day’s romanticism, we can let our precious friends know how much we think of them at any time. Instant messaging does not have to mean instant love. This week, I would like to share many heartwarming quotes about true friendship.
