In friendship, let the influence of friends who are wise counselors be paramount, and let that influence be employed in advising, not only with frankness, but, if the occasion demands, even with sternness, and let the advice be followed when given. M. Tullius Cicero. De Amictia. Laelius on friendship. Section 44.
