quote on friendship...

i am finishing the last Christmas present for my best friend and i need a quote. i got a wood box and stained it and put his name across the front in wood letters. its a really nice box for him to put little tidbits from me in there. like cards and notes etc....

i am trying to find a quote to put in there or even a poem about friendship. i have been looking all morning through my stuff (i have a tons of quotes) but i cant find one that exactly fits. So i am finally turning here to see if you guys can give me a couple suggestions on what to write in a little note for inside the box...

thanks!!

A true friend stabs you in the front.

A friend is someone who, when you make a fool of yourself, doesn't believe you've done a permanent job.

There is a BEAUTIFUL little gold book called Apples of Gold. It's full of wonderful sayings.

No problem...I've actually begun a notebook filled with quotes about almost anything, so when I saw this thread, I pulled it out and wrote down all the quotes I had in there about friends....such a help when there's something I want to say to a friend and can't find the right words ~ someone already has found them for me! :D
