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

Friends are God's way of apologizing for your family.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

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

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

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.

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.

It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.

A friend is one before whom I may think aloud.

One who knows how to show and to accept kindness will be a friend better than any possession.

I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft...

In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

If you have a candle, the light won't glow any dimmer if I light yours off of mine.

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

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

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.

I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don't believe I deserved my friends.

A good friend will always stab you in the front.

The majority of people permit relatives, friends, and the public at large to so influence them that they cannot live their own lives, because they fear criticism.

Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.
