A friend is someone who knows all about you and loves you just the same. Elbert Hubbard US author (1856 - 1915) The glory of friendship is not the outstreched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him. Ralph Waldo Emerson US essayist & poet (1803 - 1882) Faith is, above all, openess; an act of trust in the unknown. Alan Watts Faith is not the knowledge of what the mystery of the universe is, but the conviction that there is a mystery, and that it is greater than us.
