I don't know if quotes can be this long, but I got this out of a book and I liked it a lot. Didn't know where else to put it.
"Friendships do not grow up in any carefully tended and contemplated fashion...They begin haphazard.
As we look back on the first time we saw our friends we find that generally our original impression was curiously astray. We have worked along beside them, have consorted with them drunk or sober, have grown to cherish their delicious absurdities, have outrageously imposed on each other's patience- and suddenly we awoke to realize what had happened.
We had, without knowing it, gained a new friend. In some curious way the unseen border line had been passed. We had reached the final culmination of Anglo-Saxon regard when two men rarely look each other straight in the eyes because they are ashamed to show each other how fond they are.
We had reached the fine flower and the ultimate test of comradeship- that is, when you get a letter from your best friends, you know you don't need to answer it until you get ready to."
