The world forgetting, by the world forgot. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd." "To err is human; to forgive is divine." "Do good by stealth, and blush to find it fame." "Strength of mind is exercise, not rest." Top 5 quotes from Friendship "Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company." "A friend is someone, who upon seeing another friend in immense pain, would rather be the one experiencing the pain than to have to watch their friend suffer." "It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion." "In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." "True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island….to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing."
