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

A man should never neglect his family for business.

A friend is, as it were, a second self.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.

I not only use all the brains I have, but all I can borrow.

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

Be slow in choosing a friend, slower in changing.

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.

I'm so happy. Cause today I found my friends.They're in my head.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

What was more, they had taken the first step toward genuine friendship. They had exchanged vulnerabilities.

Rashness is the faithful, but unhappy parent of misfortune.

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

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.
