  1. Oh, Valerie, these are beautiful! These are the two I like best:

    “Friends are helpful not only because they will listen to us,
    but because they will laugh at us; Through them we learn a little
    objectivity, a little modesty, a little courtesy; We learn the rules
    of life and become better players of the game.”
    - Will Durant

    "If there ever comes a day when we can't be together,
    keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever."
    - A. A. Milne, 'Winnie The Pooh'

    Both have quite different messages, yet both are absolutely beautiful!
