Mikhail LermontovNo good ever becomes of a man who forgets an old friend
About This Quote
The words, “No good ever comes of a man who forgets an old friend” are powerful because they tell us that the people who are remembered are the ones who are remembered for something positive. As soon as you forget an old friend, you are no longer remembered for the good things that you have done in your life.
