The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.

There is a magic in the memory of a schoolboy friendship. It softens the heart, and even affects the nervous system of those who have no heart.

I get by with a little help from my friends.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity

As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.

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

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

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

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

There is no surer foundation for a beautiful friendship than a mutual taste in literature.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Be slow to fall into friendship, but when you are in, continue firm and constant.

Friendship is love without his wings!

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

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

Well, it's 1 a.m. Better go home and spend some quality time with the kids.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.

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

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

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.

A friend is one before whom I may think aloud.
