“Friends tell each other what nobody else is willing to tell you.”

“A friend tells you what you want to hear; a best friend tells you the truth.”

“The problem with not having anybody to tell you what to do, I understood, is that there was nobody to tell you what not to do.”

“Nobody else in that platoon can tell a Hamiltonian from a hamburger.”

“Nobody tells you what you can and can't do.”

“People don't believe what you tell them.
They rarely believe what you show them.
They often believe what their friends tell them.
They always believe what they tell themselves.”

“You're doing the best you can, right? Isn't that what we always tell each other?”

“I know we loved each other, but distance can do strange things to people and before I was willing to tell you about it, I wanted to be certain that it would last”

“If you want someone to tell you what to think…"

"You will never be short of people willing to do so.”

“… My friend, there are some things that I cannot tell you. Some I will tell you in time; some, others will tell you; some you may never know, or you may be the first to find the answers.”
