Friendship & Wisdom, divine gifts ~ Cicero

"Friendship may be thus defined: a complete accord on all subjects human and divine, joined with mutual goodwill and affection. And with the exception of wisdom, I am inclined to think nothing better than this has been given to man by the immortal gods. "~Cicero, c. 106-43 BC

When designating wisdom and friendship chiefest among divine blessings, Cicero could not have foreseen how in fullest form these would soon be expressed in the embodiment of Jesus Christ.
