Friends Quotes
-
When a man's eyes are sore his friends do not let him finger them, however much he wishes to, nor do they themselves touch the inflammation: But a man sunk in grief suffers every chance comer to stir and augment his affliction like a running sore; and by reason of the fingering and consequent irritation it hardens into a serious and intractable evil.

When the only bond between close friends is attachment, then even a minor issue may cause one's projections to change.

He did Grand Theft Auto. He made Death Race 2000.
