The relationship between husband and wife should be one of closest friends.

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.

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

Be slow to fall into friendship, but when you are in, continue firm and constant.

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.

Sometimes we owe a friend to the lucky circumstance that we give him no cause for envy.

There is no friend as loyal as a book.

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.

There is a magic in the memory of a schoolboy friendship. It softens the heart, and even affects the nervous system of those who have no heart.

No good friends. No bad friends. Only people you want, need to be with; people who build their houses in your heart.

Tis a great confidence in a friend to tell him your faults; greater to tell him his.

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

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

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.

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.

The more you let yourself go, the less others let you go.

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

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.
