“The mirror is my best friend because when I cry it never laughs.”

“He’s like my best friend. And I say that only because I have no real friends, and Cap’n is a great listener (he never interrupts when I’m talking—and I’m always the one doing all the talking). The day he does respond to me will probably be the best day of my life, because it means my walls are finally padded.”

“The best mirror is an old friend.”

“And it's true. It's so true. All those years of loving Zik because he never asked about Eve... I never realized, I never understood. It was his job as my best friend not to ask.But it was my job as his best friend to tell him without being asked.”

“Books are my friends, my companions. They make me laugh and cry and find meaning in life.”

“Do authors cry when they kill the best characters or...""They laugh and have tea with satan.”
