What is in your blood matters, but not as much as what is in your heart.

About This Quote

When it comes to the things that you have in common with your friends, these things are what is important. The things that separate you from your friends are not so important. If a friend of yours has a specific interest, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re going to want the same thing. What your friend wants to do, however, may be something that you’re interested in as well. In this age of technology, people tend to focus on the things that they have in common with their friends and forget about the things that keep them apart.
