My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.
Betray a friend, and you'll often find you have ruined yourself.
One who knows how to show and to accept kindness will be a friend better than any possession.
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.
Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity
There is no friend as loyal as a book.
Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.
Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.
I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.
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 love without his wings!
There is nothing better than a friend, unless it is a friend with chocolate.
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.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
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.
Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.
People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft...
The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.
If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.
