As a modern parent, I know that it's not how much you give children those counts, it's the love and attention you shower on them. A caring attitude can not only save you a small fortune, but also even make you feel good about being tight-fisted and offering more care than presents. (O,Hare Noel, American writer)
作為一個現代的父母，我很清楚重要的不是你給了孩子們多少物質的東西，而是你傾注在他們身上的關心和愛。關心的态度不僅能幫你省下一筆可觀的錢，而且甚至能使你感到一份欣慰，因為你花錢不多并且給予了勝過禮物的關懷。(美國作家 諾埃爾.O.)

友情

A false friend and a shadow, attend only while the sun shines.
陰影在陽光明媚時才有，狐朋狗友在春風得意時才有。

Be slow in chosing a friend, slower in changing.

When befriended, remember it; when you befriend forget it.
