Summary

This quote highlights the unique quality of old friendships, which allows us to let our guards down and be unapologetically ourselves. With old friends, we feel a sense of comfort and security that enables us to be silly, make mistakes, and behave in ways that may seem foolish. The enduring nature of these relationships allows for a deeper level of understanding and acceptance, where we can let go of the need to impress and simply enjoy each other's company, fostering a genuine connection.

A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
