A true friend will not only stand by you, but will stand…
“A true friend will not only stand by you, but will stand up for you. A true friend is not someone who lies to you, keeps secrets from you and laughs at your pain. True friends won't call you crazy and mean it, but call you crazy as in funny. I can count my true friends in a sandwich bag, not even a gallon bag.”
