Frances Farmer

  • ... and I have learned that to have a good friend is the purest of all God's gifts, for it is a love that has no exchange of payment. It is not inherited, as with a family. It is not compelling, as with a child And it has no means of physical pleasure, as with a mate. It is, therefore, an indescribable bond that brings with it a far deeper devotion than all the others.

  • I minded my own business, and, unfortunately, so did everyone else.

Frances Farmer, U.S. actor

(1914 - 1970)
