You'll be richer in the end than a prince, if you're a friend.

Edgar Guest
Be a friend. You don't need glory. Friendship is a simple story.

Edgar Guest
Oh, you'll not be any poorer if you smile along your way,
And your lot will not be harder for the kindly things you say.
Don't imagine you are wasting time for others that you spend:
You can rise to wealth and glory and still pause to be a friend.

Edgar Guest
I hold no dream of fortune vast,
Nor seek undying fame.
I do not ask when life is past
That many know my name. I may not own the skill to rise
To glory's topmost height,
Nor win a place among the wise,
But I can keep the right. And I can live my life on earth
Contented to the end,
If but a few shall know my worth
And proudly call me friend.

Edgar Guest
I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me. I'd like to be the help that you've been always glad to be; I'd like to mean as much to you each minute of the day, as you have meant, old friend of mine, to me along the way.

Edgar Guest
A feller's glad to be a friend, Out fishin'. A helpin' hand he'll always lend, Out fishin' The brotherhood of rod and line An' sky an' stream is always fine; Men come real close to God's design, Out fishin'. A feller isn't plotting schemes, Out fishin'. He's only busy with his dreams, Out fishin' His livery is a coat of tan; His creed, to do the best he can; A feller's always mostly man Out fishin'.
