Best friends one, and now we have almost nothing to say to each other. It was interesting, how he had joined those guys and I just stayed on my own. I didn't like it or dislike it. It was just funny that things had turned out that way.

About This Quote

The quote above captures the essence of friendship very well. When we make a new friend we often say, “That’s my best friend.” But, when we get to know each other and become closer the friendship becomes more like a brotherhood. We spend time together but when one of us is in trouble or needs help, the other will step in even though he has nothing to gain by helping. We are all in this together. This quote comes from The Great Gatsby by F Scott Fitzgerald.
