"Friends are like television. Some are like PBS and always asking for money, others are like the news with sad tales to tell every day, some are like that one station with the foreign language, you don't understand a word of it but you watch and listen anyway; and then there are the ones like commercials: always changing, ever so annoying and only seem to be there when you're bored, but every once in a while you meet someone who's like a really good movie of the week or a T.V. show you hardly ever get to see anymore because you're so busy. My point is: hold on to the friends that you care about and since we don't have a remote control to mute someone or just change the channel, pick your friends carefully."
"Yet ah! why should they know their fate?
Since sorrow never comes too late,
And happiness too swiftly flies.

No more; where ignorance is bliss,
'Tis folly to be wise."
- Thomas Gray
