Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

A new acquaintance is like a new book. I prefer it, even if bad, to a classic.

The family is one of nature's masterpieces.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

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

True friends ... face in the same direction, toward common projects, interests, goals.

Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.

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.

Friendship was given by nature to be an assistant to virtue, not a companion in vice.

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

Our most intimate friend is not he to whom we show the worst, but the best of our nature.

Misfortune shows those who are not really friends.

Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

You can make more friends in two months by becoming more interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get people interested in you

Man's best support is a very dear friend.

Friends and acquaintances are the surest passport to fortune.

Between friends there is no need of justice.

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

Friendship is love without his wings!

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