If I could have one friend, just one in all the world, I know that I would not seek outa boy or pretty girl. The friend I’d dare to chooseto stand by me each daywould be a dragon fierce enoughto scare the world away.

About This Quote

It is true that friends are important in life, but in the end, they are not that important. That is because friends are like the stars in the sky. The stars shine brightly in the night sky, but in the end, they are nothing more than a faint light in the face of the night sky. Friends are not really something to be afraid of.

Friends are people who make you happy when you make them happy and when you make them sad, they will cry with you. But at the end of it all, when you look up at the night sky, you will see all of those beautiful stars shining down on you. Your friends might appear brighter than the rest of the stars in the sky, but they too lead their own lives.

They live on their own star and do not depend on you to live on theirs.
