Quote by J. L. Harbour
“A London paper not long ago offered a prize for the best definition of "friend." The prize was awarded to the person who sent in this: "The first person who comes in when the whole world has gone out." It is a good definition. True friendship delights in deeds more than in words — coming unasked in times of adversity. A true friend never forsakes us, not even when we forsake ourselves. True friendship abides, in sunshine and in storm. When the whole world has gone out, this loving Friend will love you still.”— J. L. Harbour
