It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.

A friend is one before whom I may think aloud.

Real friends stab you in the front.

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

The best kind of friend is the kind you sit with, never say a word and walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you ever had.

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

A doubtful friend is worse than a certain enemy. Let a man be one thing or the other, and we then know how to meet him.

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

A good friend will always stab you in the front.

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

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

Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people.

Betray a friend, and you'll often find you have ruined yourself.

Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

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

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

No one who can read, ever looks at a book, even unopened on a shelf, like one who cannot.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

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.

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