"AT SCHOOL, FRIENDSHIP IS A PASSION. IT EN­
TRANCES THE BEING, IT TEARS THE SOUL. ALL
LOVES OF AFTERLIFE CAN NEVER BRING ITS RAP­
TURE, OR ITS WRETCHEDNESS, NO BLISS SO AB­
SORBING, NO PANGS OF JEALOUSY OR DESPAIR SO
CRUSHING AND SO KEENI WHAT TENDERNESS AND
WHAT DEVOTION, WHAT ILLIMITABLE CONFI­
DENCE, INFINITE REVELATIONS OF INMOST
THOUGHTS, WHAT ECSTATIC PRESENT AND RO­
MANTIC FUTURE, WHAT BITTER ESTRANGEMENTS
AND WHAT MELTING RECONCILIATIONS, SCENES
OF WILD RECRIMINATION, AGITATING EXPLANA­
TIONS, PASSIONATE CORRESPONDENCE, WHAT IN­
SANE SENSITIVENESS, AND WHAT FRANTIC SENSI­
BILITY, WHAT EARTHQUAKES OF THE HEART AND
WHIRLWINDS OF THE SOUL ARE CONFINED IN
TH A T SIMPLE PHRASE, A S C H O O LBO Y ’ S
FRIENDSHIP!”
