Quote by 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.”

Algernons motor-vation is the cheese they put in his box. But it can't be that because I didn't eat any cheese last week.”
