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

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

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

Friendship is love without his wings!

Friendship with oneself is all-important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else.

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.

Friends are God's way of apologizing for your family.

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

A man should never neglect his family for business.

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

Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

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

The best kind of friend is the kind you sit with, never say a word and walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you ever had.

Betray a friend, and you'll often find you have ruined yourself.

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