• But a man's best friend is the one who not only wishes him well but wishes it for his own sake (even though nobody will ever know it): and this condition is best fulfilled by his attitude towards himself - and similarly with all the other attributes that go to define a friend.

You can learn more about that by seeing what’s sitting on my bookshelf than having me fill out a whole bunch of forms.
