Michael Robotham

Resentment is like swallowing a poison and waiting for the other person to die.

Remember, the worst hour of your life only lasts for sixty minutes.

One of the strange things about friendship is that time together isn't cancelled out by time apart. One doesn't erase the other or balance it on some invisible scale. You can spend a few hours with someone and they will change your life, or you can spend a lifetime with a person and remain unchanged.

Alcoholics don’t have relationships-they take hostages.

Truth is a matter of semantics, whether we like it or not.

Sometimes friends do foolish things. My father told me that true friends are like gold coins. Ships are wrecked by storms and lie for hundreds of years on the ocean floor. Worms destroy the wood. Iron corrodes. Silver turns black but gold doesn't change in sea water. It loses none of its brilliance or colour. It comes up the same. It survives shipwrecks and time.
