“Friendship is the love that is ignored; people don't theorise about friendship, write poetry about it. It just goes quietly along, sustaining. Passion spends itself--oh my goodness, does passion spend itself--but friendship is always there. Like a good marriage, it survives attack.” — Penelope Lively
