On Friendship, by George Washington

"Be courteous to all but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence; true friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to appellation."
-George Washington, letter, Jan. 15, 1783
