Dear bella_aria-ga;

I had your question locked for a time as was sad to see it expire so
quickly. If you'd like to repost and request me specifically I'd be
delighted to help you. I actually had a fully prepared answer for you
and was about to post it when your question expired. 

I have always been fascinated with the concept of the
mentor/protege...learn from the "masters"... relationship to facilitate
the education & development of an individual in whatever field they
want to study be it the arts, business, sports, etc.  I read somewhere
(was it Tony Robbins?) that he interviewed people who had already
achieved what he wanted to achieve and sought out their wisdom to
learn life's lessons from them. I believe that if I surround myself
with other people who have mastered areas that I too want to master,
their energy stimulates & motivates me in a positive way to do so.
That being said, I am looking for quotations, modern and historical,
that support & promote this concept.

scarce. If you go out to be a friend, you?ll find them everywhere.
