About This Quote
Making a million friends is not a Miracle. The miracle is to make A Friend who will stand by you when millions are against you. The word 'friend' is used in many different ways. For example, some people have friends whom they hang out with on weekends, but do not call them friends.
Others have friends whom they trust with their life, but are not considered friends by them. To be considered a friend, you must commit to the friendship. It's the commitment that makes the friendship endure.
I have many friends that I consider my family, but I also have many friends that are just acquaintances. I would say that the most important thing in making a friend is commitment - commitment to be there no matter what happens. If you are there for someone with everything you've got, then you are truly a friend.
