Mathematical Quote for a Friend
A friend should be radical
They should love you when you are unlovable
Hug you when you are unhuggable
And bear you when you are unbearable
A friend should be fanatical
They should cheer when the whole word boos
Dance when you get good news
And cry when you cry too
But most of all, a friend should be mathematical
They should multiply your joy
Divide your sorrow
Subtract the past
And add to tomorrow
Calculate the deep need in your heart
And always be bigger than the sum of all your parts
