You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. Remember that friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share words of praise and they always want to open their hearts to us.”过了些天，男孩告诉父亲，篱笆上所有的钉子都被拔去了。父亲拉着儿子的手，来到了篱笆旁。“你做得很棒，我的孩子。”父亲说，“可是你瞧见篱笆上那些洞了吗?篱笆再也不会是原来那个样子了。你发脾气时说出的伤害别人的话会给对方留下一道伤痕。如同用刀去扎人，随后又把刀抽出来一样。孩子，要记住，朋友是世上最珍贵的宝石。朋友会带给你无尽欢笑，朋友会鼓励你成功，朋友会聆听、会赞扬、会永远对你敞开心扉。”
