Blessed thing it is for any man or woman to have a friend;
One human soul whom we can trust utterly:
Who knows the best and the worst of us,
And who loves us, in spite of our faults:
Who will speak the honest truth to us,
While the world flatters us to our faces....
But who, again will comfort and encourage us
In the day of difficulty and sorrow,
When the world leaves us alone,
To fight our own battles as we can.
Charles Kingsley
