About this Quote

This quote by Peter Ustinov suggests that relationship is not always based upon who we like the most, however rather on who we fulfill initially. This suggests that we might not constantly have the ability to pick our good friends, but rather that our pals are the people who we take place to satisfy initially. This might be due to a variety of aspects, such as geographical distance, shared interests, or perhaps simply chance.
