Good fences make good neighbors, and these were apparently good enough that they had not felt the need for razor wire at the top. I crested the fence, threw myself into the yard beyond, fell, rolled to my feet, and ran with the expectation of being garroted by a taut clothesline.

The dog glanced up at me tongue rolling, grinning, as though jazzed by the prospect of an unscheduled play session.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Friendship means only one thing: you don't create fences around you, but try to remove fences from the life of another person.

Harbhajan Singh Yogi

The Savior’s words are simple, yet their meaning is profound and deeply significant. We are to love God and to love and care for our neighbors as ourselves. Imagine what good we can do in the world if we all join together, united as followers of Christ, anxiously and busily responding to the needs of others and serving those around us — our families, our friends, our neighbors, our fellow citizens.

M. Russell Ballard
