Who knew having a friend could be so beneficial? 

I kept on asking him question after question; and he answered all of them, without exhibiting the irritation that he must be feeling.

Being stuck up doesn't help me. I know that now. Having people you can rely on without being expected to repay them is a luxury that I must be able to afford.

It doesn't hurt to swallow your pride every once in a while.

I need more allies, for a friend in need is a friend indeed.
