I am already kindly disposed towards you. My friendship it is not in my power to give: this is a gift which no man can make, it is not in our own power: a sound and healthy friendship is the growth of time and circumstance, it will spring up and thrive.

Source: Letter, 29 July 1803, to author Thomas De Quincey, who had written Wordsworth a letter expressing his admiration. The two had never met.
