RADIO PROGRAM No. 165 - A Sound Basis for Friendship

Lawrence Spector

Speaker: We're all interested in maintaining friendships and in avoiding hurts and disappointments. Our guest today, Lawrence Spector of Beverly Hills, California, had certain notions about friendship that interfered with his happiness and progress in every direction. Just what were some of these, Larry?

Mr. Spector: Well, at one time I wanted friends, no matter what it cost. To me they were everything, the most important thing to acquire. You acquired them to surround yourself with admirers, to inflate yourself with their esteem, and to protect yourself with their numbers.

Speaker: Now this is a rather shaky basis for friendship, isn't it? It seems to be all one-sided. And I know you found that true friendship and how to acquire it and keep it were something quite different.
