Between friends there is no need of justice.

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

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.

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

Friendship is love without his wings!

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.

A friend is one before whom I may think aloud.

I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.

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

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

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

The more you let yourself go, the less others let you go.

A good friend will always stab you in the front.

There is nothing better than a friend, unless it is a friend with chocolate.

Well, it's 1 a.m. Better go home and spend some quality time with the kids.

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

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

Rashness is the faithful, but unhappy parent of misfortune.

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.

Books like friends, should be few and well-chosen.

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