Rashness is the faithful, but unhappy parent of misfortune.

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.

Loyalty is what we seek in friendship.

Between friends there is no need of justice.

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

A friend to all is a friend to none.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

Friendship makes prosperity more brilliant, and lightens adversity by dividing and sharing it.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

There is no friend as loyal as a book.

Children make your life important.

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.

Friendship is nothing else than an accord in all things, human and divine, conjoined with mutual goodwill and affection.

Marriage has no guarantees. If that's what you're looking for, go live with a car battery.

As in the case of wines that improve with age, the oldest friendships ought to be the most delightful.

I not only use all the brains I have, but all I can borrow.

A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still.

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

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

I get by with a little help from my friends.
