Friendship
Oriaon Swett Marden
No young man starting life could have better capital than plenty
of friends. They will strengthen his credit, support him in every great
effort, and make him what, unaided, he could never be. Friends of
the right sort will help him more---to be happy and successful---than
much money or great learning.
Friendship is no one-sided affair. There can be no friendship without
reciprocity. One cannot receive all and give nothing, or give all and
receive nothing, and experience the joy and fullness of true
companionship.
Those who would make friends must cultivate the qualities which are
admired and which attract. If you are mean, stingy and selfish, nobody
will admire you. You must cultivate generosity 1 and large-heartedness;
you must be magnanimous and tolerant; you must have positive qualities,
for a negative, shrinking, apologizing, roundabout man is despised. You
must believe in yourself. If you do not, others will not believe in you. You
must look upward and be hopeful, cheery, and optimistic. No one will be
attracted to a gloomy pessimist 2.
