If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.

You are my best friend as well as my lover, and I do not know which side of you I enjoy the most. I treasure each side, just as I have treasured our life together.

We make our friends; we make our enemies; but God makes our next-door neighbour.

Real friends stab you in the front.

Constant use had not worn ragged the fabric of their friendship.

A friend is, as it were, a second self.

You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them.

We should behave to our friends as we would wish our friends to behave to us.

Adversity tests the sincerity of friends.

I get by with a little help from my friends.

Books like friends, should be few and well-chosen.

Tis a great confidence in a friend to tell him your faults; greater to tell him his.

If you go out looking for friends, you're going to find they are very scarce. If you go out to be a friend, you'll find them everywhere.
