"The highest spiritual quality, the noblest property of mind a man can have, is this of loyalty ... a man with no loyalty in him, with no sense of love or reverence or devotion due to something outside and above his poor daily life, with its pains and pleasures, profits and losses, is as evil a case as man can be."

Insightful"Be a friend when people most need one. As movie mogul Lew Wasserman used to advise talent agents: 'If an actor is working, make sure you talk to him at least twice a week. If he is not working, talk to him every day.' Helping people will not guarantee that they respond to you in kind. My experience is that you can count on about one in ten, but this one makes up for the others."
Return to Index of Loyalty Quotes Loyal Friends"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."
"What is a Friend? I'll tell you. It is a person with whom you dare to be yourself. Your soul can go naked with him. He seems to ask you to put on nothing, only to be what you really are.
When you are with him, you do not have to be on your guard. You can say what you think, so long as it is genuinely you.
He understands those contradictions in your nature that cause others to misjudge you. With him you breathe freely—you can avow your little vanities and envies and absurdities, and in opening them up to him they are dissolved on the white ocean of his loyalty. He understands.—You can weep with him, laugh with him, pray with him—through and underneath it all he sees, knows and loves you."
"When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there."
True friends, like ivy and the wall
Both stand together, and together fall."
"In prosperity our friends know us; in adversity we know our friends."
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
"When adversities flow, then love ebbs; but friendship standeth stiffly in storms."
"A friend: one who knows all about you and loves you just the same."
"A real friend will not visit you in prosperity unless he is invited, but when you are in adversity he will call without invitation."

Loyalty Among Soldiers"Soldiers, when committed to a task, can't compromise. It's unrelenting devotion to the standards of duty and courage, absolute loyalty to others, not letting the task go until it's been done." Return to Index of Loyalty Quotes Loyalty and Animals"I've seen people that don't treat their animals well and yet their animals are still just as loving to them even though they're not treated that well. It's very hard to find that kind of loyalty and love and affection in human beings." "If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans." "The only honest reaction and true loyalty we get is from our animals. Once they're your friends, you can do no wrong." Return to Index of Loyalty Quotes Loyalty and Love"For above all things Love means sweetness, and truth, and measure; yea, loyalty to the loved one and to your word. And because of this I dare not meddle with so high a matter." "I learned the real meaning of love. Love is absolute loyalty. People fade, looks fade, but loyalty never fades. You can depend so much on certain people, you can set your watch by them. And that's love, even if it doesn't seem very exciting."
"So much of what is best in us is bound up in our love of family, that it remains the measure of our stability because it measures our sense of loyalty. All other pacts of love or fear derive from it and are modeled upon it." "The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace." "You will reciprocally promise love, loyalty and matrimonial honesty. We only want for you this day that these words constitute the principle of your entire life and that with the help of divine grace you will observe these solemn vows that today, before God, you formulate."

Loyalty and Patriotism"A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle and patriotism is loyalty to that principle." "All of us should have free choice when it comes to patriotic displays... a government wisely acting within its bounds will earn loyalty and respect from its citizens. A government dare not demand the same." "I believe patriotism comes from the heart. Patriotism is voluntary. It is a feeling of loyalty and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief." "That future depends on the values of self-government, our sense of duty, loyalty, self-confidence and regard for the common good. We are a diverse country, and getting more diverse. And these virtues are what keep this great country together." "The test of good citizenship is loyalty to country." "The United States is not a nation based upon race, creed, or religion - we are a nation based upon our loyalty and allegiance to our country and her principles." "There should be a sympathy with freedom, a desire to give it scope, founded not upon visionary ideas, but upon the long experience of many generations within the shores of this happy isle, that in freedom you lay the firmest foundations both of loyalty and order."

Loyalty Defined"When we are debating an issue, loyalty means giving me your honest opinion, whether you think I'll like it or not. Disagreement, at this state, stimulates me. But once a decision is made, the debate ends. From that point on, loyalty means executing the decision as if it were your own."
"Loyalty cannot be blueprinted. It cannot be produced on an assembly line. In fact, it cannot be manufactured at all, for its origin is the human heart-the center of self-respect and human dignity. It is a force which leaps into being only when conditions are exactly right for it-and it is a force very sensitive to betrayal."
"Loyalty is the pledge of truth to oneself and others."

The Dash
It's not the date you were born, or the date you died, that really matters. It's "the dash" between those years and what you do with it, to make a difference with your life.
