Women can form a friendship with a man very well; but to preserve it, a slight physical antipathy most probably helps.
Friends are as companions on a journey, who ought to aid each other to persevere in the road to a happier life.
What was more, they had taken the first step toward genuine friendship. They had exchanged vulnerabilities.
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft...
People are like dirt. They can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die.
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.
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
We make our friends; we make our enemies; but God makes our next-door neighbour.
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.
Our most intimate friend is not he to whom we show the worst, but the best of our nature.
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.

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.
A good friend will always stab you in the front.
A friend is one before whom I may think aloud.
No good friends. No bad friends. Only people you want, need to be with; people who build their houses in your heart.
Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.
In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things, does the heart find its morning and is refreshed.
