How to Be a Friend: An Ancient Guide to True Friendship by Marcus Tullius Cicero
4.0
1. There are different kinds of friendship
2. Only good people can be true friends
3. We should choose our friends with care
4. Friends make you a better person
5. Make new friends, but keep the old
6. Friends are honest with each other
7. The reward of friendship is friendship itself
8. A friend never asks another friend to do something wrong
9. Friendships can change over time
10. Without friends, life is not worth living
Ok, bullet powerpoint style summary of the takeways aside, what is touching is how the prose plays out like having a heart to heart chat with a buddy who you know always has your best interests in mind, espousing the points above. Do treat yourself to befriending the author, it won't take more than one sitting.
