It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.

The trouble is that people seem to expect happiness in life. I can't imagine why; but they do. They are unhappy before they marry, and they imagine to themselves that the reason of their unhappiness will be removed when they are married. When it isn't they blame the other person, which is clearly absurd. I believe that is what generally starts the trouble.

Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.

A blow from your friend is better than a kiss from your enemy.

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

Everyone wants to ride with you in the limo but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

To throw away an honest friend is, as it were, to throw your life away

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

I am a raging alcoholic and a raging addict and I didn't want to see my kids do the same thing.

People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.

Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

A friend is one who has the same enemies as you have.

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together.

Friends and acquaintances are the surest passport to fortune.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

It is not until you become a mother that your judgment slowly turns to compassion and understanding.

Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.

Anybody amuses me for once. A new acquaintance is like a new book. I prefer it, even if bad, to a classic.

The more you let yourself go, the less others let you go.
