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

Friendship was given by nature to be an assistant to virtue, not a companion in vice.

Woman is not made to be the admiration of all, but the happiness of one.

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

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

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.

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

Anybody amuses me for once. A new acquaintance is like a new book. I prefer it, even if bad, to a classic.

We should behave to our friends as we would wish our friends to behave to us.

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

Women can form a friendship with a man very well; but to preserve it, a slight physical antipathy most probably helps.

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.

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

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.

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

Our most intimate friend is not he to whom we show the worst, but the best of our nature.

In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.

I am a raging alcoholic and a raging addict and I didn't want to see my kids do the same thing.

You don't live in a world all alone. Your brothers are here too.
