Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.

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

I get by with a little help from my friends.

Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.

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

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

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

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.

Man's best support is a very dear friend.

Adversity tests the sincerity of friends.

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.

Constant use had not worn ragged the fabric of their friendship.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

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

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

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

As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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