Glory Of Friendship Poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Glory Of Friendship

Rating: ★5.0


The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand,
nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship;
it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when
he discovers that someone else believes in him and is
willing to trust him.
