Friendship: The Master Passion

"Friendship by its very nature consists in loving rather than in being loved. In other words, friendship consists in being a friend, not in having a friend; in giving one's affection unselfishly and unswervingly to another, not in being the object of another's affection, or in reciprocating such an affection...Friendship-love, as a love that is unselfish, uncraving, ever out-going, and ever on-going, is in its very nature divine love. It is such love as God gives, and as man ought to give to God. It is such love as man should give to his fellow-man for God's sake." - H.C. Trumball "Our best friends are those whose company most makes us afraid to sin. These friends are rare and to be valued like solid gold." - Maurice Roberts
