About This Quote

Many people confuse what something looks like with its importance. For example, when people are discussing the importance of a person in their lives, they often say things like, “He/she is my best friend.” That statement would make sense if you think about it. If someone is your best friend, then they must be important to you right? Wrong! The ability to be a good friend is much more important. It could even mean the difference between life and death.
