“Great pleasure is to be found not only in keeping up an old and established friendship but also in beginning and building up a new one…The philosopher Attalus used to say that it was more of a pleasure to make a friend than to have one, ‘in the same way as an artist derives more pleasure from painting than from having completed a picture.’…So with our children, their growing up brings wider fruits but their infancy was sweeter.” –Seneca
